I've noticed one thing in the Kubuntu default theme now, it has these two
functions defined:

Window.GetMaxWidth = fun() {
    width = 0;
    for (i = 0; Window.GetWidth(i); i++) {
        width = Math.Max(width, Window.GetWidth(i));
    }
    return width;
};

Window.GetMaxHeight = fun() {
    height = 0;
    for (i = 0; Window.GetHeight(i); i++) {
        height = Math.Max(height, Window.GetHeight(i));
    }
    return height;
};

This leads me to think that I need to do something similar. I didn't know
Window.GetHeight/GetWidth could take a parameter. These functions don't
seem to be used in the Kubuntu theme though.

Anyone who could shed some light on this? What is the parameter for? Will
it give the width/height of the given screen (for multi-screen setups?).

Our machine has just one screen, but perhaps Plymouth somehow thinks it has
several?

I'll experiment some with this later.
