Summary:                    Windows not re-placed when resizing via xrandr
Description: 
If you resize the screen to a smaller size via xrandr any windows that
would no longer be visible should be re-placed inside the new viewable
area.  This works fine for settings manager, but iconbox, panel, taskbar
(and perhaps others) are not moved onto the viewable area and are lost.

xfwm4 replace windows with borders, assuming the others would repalce
themselves. Unfortunately, for now only xfwm4 is xrandr compatible, so the
others are left out (support for xrandr was added in xfwm4 for apps like
xawtv which use xrandrd to resize the output fullscreen window)

This should be improved in xfce 4.2.

What do we do with this bug? I believe the panel is xrandr aware at least
when compiled with gtk > 2.2. Any other Xfce problems?

I added the xrandr support to panel, taskbar and desktop one week after 4.0
was released. It works only with gtk+ 2.2, but no problem here, since this
is the target plattform for 4.2 anyways.

Should be fixed for builds using gtk >= 2.2.
