The idea is to have an easy access to the e-menu with a mouse click from 
wherever your mouse may roam.
Any suggestions, workarounds, ideas, etc. very much welcome, they might prove 
useful.

I just have to click at the very top of the screen and the menu opens.  No
need to reserve a pixel anywhere.  However, this could be theme dependent, I
use the "orange-ice" e16 theme.

I think that may be more or less a side effect of the edge flip feature. If you enable that in "Only when moving window" mode you get the root menus when clicking on any edge.

There are also the Alt-Ctrl-F1,2,3,4 keybindings which bring up various menus (can be customized via bindings.cfg).

To actually implement the feature as you describe would probably just require a couple lines of code in ScreenGetAvailableArea() plus some configuration support.

Btw. I cannot find "orange-ice" anywhere, is it "OrangeJuice"?

P.S.: Thanks to Kim for still working on e16!

:)
