Just use your window manager to force any windows to fit that space. The
ICCCM and X rules sensibly say that the window manager has the final say
and everything the application provides is merely a request or hint.

Windows that set themselves no redirect (eg xteddy, oneko) will of
course fall outside window manager handling but proper applications will
be fine.
