I've a little patch to make that scale plugins considers the whole screen minus the launcher size. I've some problems with terminal windows, it seems to work well with all other windows.

As you can see with nautilus windows (and all other app i've tried expect gnome-terminal) not only the launcher area is not considered, but the spacing beetwen the launcher area and the first window is the same of the space between the last window and the right edge of the monitor.

With gnome-terminal windows the launcher area is not considered but the two external spacing are not the equal.

@smspillaz any idea about the gnome-terminal problem?

P.S.: should not be so difficult update the launcher area when launcher icon size change in unity.
