"The launcher would set a soft strut that would encourage initial window placement outside of the strut, but not be a strict enforcement as in the panel case."

There is a secondary issue. There should be a sticky spot at the edge of the panel so you can easily drag a window up next to the panel and drop it to butt against the panel without causing the panel to be hidden, but also allowing you to continue dragging to the edge of the screen if you really want the window next to the edge similar to the way you might have a sticky spot at the edge of the screen so you can easily butt the window to the edge of the screen, while still allowing you to continue dragging the window so it is partially off screen if you wish.
