Scr->MaxWindowWidth = 32767 - Scr->rootw;
Scr->MaxWindowHeight = 32767 - Scr->rooth;
My reading of this code says that the reason why it's written that way
it's to ensure that the position of all four corners will be <=32767,
as long as one of the corners is within the root window. IOW this is
the maximum size which still allows the user to place the window
anywhere within the root window.

Past 2047pixels, your window's placement would become constrained by the
need for all four corners's coordinates to be <=32767.
