If the taskbar position changes then the screen dimensions available to applications change - windows may need to be moved and resized. The applications themselves handle that. Of course, they need to be able to do this anyway so it's not really an issue.

I didn't even think of full-screen applications having to relayout. It's not like every screen is the same size or dimension, either. I guess it could be what they were referring to.
