Right. That's not a workflow I think I've ever seen anyone do with a windowed game. \
For anyone who wants to do that, they can always turn the borders back on. Or just \
resize one of the windows slightly so the dead zone doesn't overlap the game window. \
Or not try to play a windowed game right next to a window that's explicitly marked as \
always on top. Or any number of other very simple tweaks.
I don't think it makes sense to focus on 0.01% corner cases in the process of \
determining sensible default settings. Defaults should be good for 80-90% of people, \
and changeable for the rest. Supporting games in adjacent/tiled lower-focused windows \
underneath top pinned upper windows feels like it's pretty squarely in that minority \
group where we can feel comfortable saying, "if you need to do this, here is the \
setting or slight workflow (gameflow?) tweak you can change to make it happen."
