Remembering unfortunately that these can change on a single platform - eg on
Windows a user can adjust the titlebar height to a nominal value anywhere in
the range 15-100 pixels (on the fly, while your stack is running).  Of
course the vast majority of users never adjust these settings - but if you
really need to get it right, you'll have to some way to find these values,
you can't hardwire them.

Does anyone know if they're stored in the registry?  Otherwise, presumably
an external could take a Rev window id and return the actual rect it
occupies.
