I got my Kicker centered at the top of my left screen (I got Xinerama 
running 2 screens). It occupies maybe 75% of the width of the left 
screen. However, I am unable to use (conveniently) some area on the 
right screen too, because KDE would not let me move a window higher than 
the lower border of kicker. So I end up with a stripe of perfectly good 
screen area being wasted...

I like choice and configurability. I want to switch that off.
