When? I have been thinking about it and can't come up with a time when
you need this information before you open the window. You could always 
open the window, check the borders and then resize it down if you had
to and exit if it wasn't big enough. Or open a small window, check 
the borders, close it, set the sizes and reopen it.

Change the include symbol to something like -> (rather than >) and you
don't need this.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
