We can try to hint the WM and even make that the default.  But this
won't help people on tiling WMs or embedded frames.  And a WM that
cannot be hinted might just size the frame back as well.  We had some
issues with GNOME shell in the past and with pgtk/Wayland most of our
desires to control screen layout will have become a pipe dream anyway.

It depends on what _we_ want to show above that line.  The screen estate
within the native frame rectangle is and will stay with us forever.
