Minimum is 24 pixels. And in KDE4 it will be adjustable too. Panel in KDE3 is adjustable. Minimum is 24 pixels. And in KDE4 it will be adjustable too.

It only shows up whenever I want it to (which is quite rarely really). I access my applications menu by right-clicking on the desktop,and the panel shows up only when I let the mouse pointer hover over where the panel is supposed to be. Easy, and I would be surprised if KDE4 doesn't allow that. If not now, in a few updates it most likely will. So, I would say you're worried over nothing. But you're right: the PDE will never exist. But it will certainly be interesting to see what you Gnome guys come up with in response. A healthy competition is always a good thing in my book :) Dunno about KDE4, as I haven’t explored it in enough detail yet (and I will hold off upgrading my main system to it until at least 4.1), but the panel in KDE3 waste exactly zero pixels on my desktop.
