docks being drawn over desktop folder labels
Attached is an image of tint2 being drawn over desktop folder labels. This
happens with any non KDE panel/dock.
The problem, which I tried to trace, is that the FolderView.qml (which I think
lays out folders and desktop shortcuts) is not taking _NET_WM_PARTIAL_STRUT,
and _NET_WM_STRUT into account.
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/1.3/ar01s05.html
Specifically, it seems that when using a panel which is not the default KDE
panel, gridView.width and gridView.height are wrong too large as they don't
negate the space that is taken up by the dock.
I tried figuring out how it was that the default KDE panel seemingly correctly
negates the area it takes up from gridView.height, but it's written in qml and
I'm not one of the 12 people who write qml.
Anyways, hopefully that's enough info, and hopefully that data (the actual
geometry of the screen is accessible and can be fixed).
BTW: It seems that the correct gridView.width and height would be the:
_NET_WORKAREA property which is exposed already.

Thanks, and Good luck.
