For comparison: Notification overlaps Add Widget interface

Yes, that is what I figured as well. The question is whether it *should*
successfully try to do so if there's not enough space.

If you place the tray to the left and have the "Add widget" interface open, a
notification will just overlap it (it always takes the whole screen, so the
only way to dodge it would be to the side). This is clearly worse than properly
dodging if that can work, but it doesn't look too bad - see the attached screen
shot. Feels more intentional than having it partially off screen.

(Short screen size is very well taken; maybe Plasma/Neon shouldn't suggest 150%
by default on a 13" 1920x1080 screen under Wayland? There's a couple other
points where it's just a bit too little space; System Settings with the
Wireless & Network kcm doesn't quite fit the screen width-wise, for example).

Looks like it's trying successfully trying to dodge the panel settings dialog,
but there simply isn't enough screen real estate. 1920x1080 at 150% scale makes
the effective resolution only 1280 x720

We could reduce the amount of space it tries to allocate between itself and the
dialog, but in principle this is always going to happen with a short screen.
When you exit Edit Mode, there should be enough space again, at least.
