You might look at setting

_NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL
for window managers that support EWMH.  Although I think the GNOME 
panels might do something like set the window type/level, I'm not 
really sure that's what you want. Either case, you might have to hack 
the backend and possible define an interface between the front and 
backend (gui/back) to get it to work transparently from GNUstep.
