SUMMARY
If I have a large bottom panel (like 400px) for widgets, I notice the split screen windows are not the proper sizes. press super+down then I get a window that is smaller than half the monitor, and when I press super+up

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create large bottom panel (400+ pixels) that is always visible
2. press super+down
3. notice window is smaller than half of the viewing area
4. press super+up
5. notice window is half of the monitor but more than half of the viewing area

EXPECTED RESULT
The midpoint of the display should maybe be calculated after the fixed panels are subtracted from the screen size?
