[Bug 1303462] [NEW] [Regression] Window titlebars placed behind panel

 

Public bug reported:

Windows with a height of (Display Height - Panel Height) get placed at y=0 (behind the top panel)
which means window titlebars are not reachable without alt-moving the window.
I assume this happens with windows that want to resize themselves if their height exceeds the display resolution.
Reproducable on my 1366x768 screen with LibreOffice and a Qt 5 desktop application I'm working on.
