I think it's the same bug
my windows too go behind the panel (top left)
Some applications (e.g.Thunderbird) do not do this when they are closed
maximized
while many others (e.g. console, evince, nautilus) do this every time I
open them

[Regression] Window titlebars placed behind panel

Bug description:
[Impact]
Some windows that open from within another window such as a Firefox
popup window will be placed with the decorations under the Panel.
Also, some windows will just open with the decoration under the Panel
such as virt-manager. This can cause confusion for the user on how to
move the window and how to close it. This can be very disruptive to a
user's workflow.
[Test case]
1. Install virt-manager.
2. Make sure no other windows are open.
3. Start virt-manager.
virt-manager should start in the top left. With this fix, the
decoration should be visible.
[Regression potential]
None identified.

Original description:
Windows with a height of (Display Height - Panel Height) get placed at
y=0 (behind the top panel)
which means window titlebars are not reachable without alt-moving the
window.
I assume this happens with windows that want to resize themselves if
their height exceeds the display resolution.
Reproducable on my 1366x768 screen with LibreOffice and a Qt 5 desktop
application I'm working on.
TEMPORARY WORKAROUND:
Use the Cntrl+SuperKey+Right or Left Arrow Key
This will resize your currently focused window to occupy the Right
(Left) half of the screen. The Title Bar should now be visible, so you need
to drag it and resize it at your prefered position. This will save the new
position in place of the previously hidden state.
