I don't think that's true for v0.60.1... from the docs:

[func]
getClientRect ( integer ControlId )
Get uncovered portion of the client area.
Returns: { left, top, width, height, bottom, right }
Category: Attributes

Unlike the menu, toolbar and statusbar both occupy space
in the window. To determine what part of the window's client
area is not covered, use this function.
