After using `emacs -q' to start a new Emacs running in an X11 window and creating a new buffer in some way that doesn't split the Emacs frame, I am able to drag the mode-line downwards outside the window my window-manager created. I can not dag it in the initial *scratch* buffer. Resizing the frame snaps the mode-line back in place again.
I am using Openbox as my window-manager.
