Yes, the shadow is back. It looks good. It also doesn't fix the issue I
described. I'd like to rename the bug back to its original title or something
like it.

Let me try explaining it with a screenshot quiz because the original textual
description apparently didn't convey it well enough. (Now that KAuth is working
for me again, I have Spectacle back at least on the X11 session.) I will attach
two screenshots with Firefox showing this bug report page.

a) In one screenshot, the Firefox window is much taller than the actual screen
at hand. (The captured screen is my bottom screen, I dragged it down from my
much taller monitor.)
b) In the other screenshot, the bottom of the Firefox window is snapped to the
panel edge, so the entirety of its view is on screen.

Which is which?

(This is a trick question. The answer is you cannot tell. My problem with the
window presentation is that there isn't a noticeable difference between seeing
the entire window or having it cut off underneath the panel.)
