There is an implementation in the Terf VM:

primitiveHostWindowScreenWorkAreaSize: windex
<option: #TerfVM>
"Answer the platform's notion of the available work area on the screen
containing the given window."
| size |
self primitive: 'primitiveHostWindowScreenWorkAreaSize'
parameters: #(SmallInteger).
size := self ioSizeOfScreenWorkArea: windex.
size = -1 ifTrue:
[^interpreterProxy primitiveFail].
^self pointFromCompactPointEncoding: size

But this would require you build your own HostWindowPlugin and set the
TerfVM option while building it.  This isn't much of an answer but I hope
that some time this year this code will be more generally available.  Sorry
:-(
