sk8erbender: Thank you for the bug confirmation. However, Dylan McCall put it succinctly in comment #202: "The source of this problem is really close to the heart of the panel's design. It allows user-defined positions for applets, and these are stored with absolute values (in pixels). No amount of fiddling will change that that is a very poor, inflexible design."
Unless a dev corrects me, this bug will not be fixed. It will only go away when a replacement is enacted, or there is a complete redesign of the fundamental panel code architecture and assumptions. In the meantime, there are a number of workarounds in the discussion above, but for now, this paper cut will continue to bleed.
