Thanks for the reply, Andrew.  I suspected it's either easy and I was
just missing the obvious, or it's impossible.  I've been avoiding
compiz, so I'll just keep using the system monitor even if your
suggestion were to work.  Oh well.

I guess this is one of those areas where KDE's extreme configurability
let me do some unusual things.  I think I had five panels of various
sizes and positions in KDE 3.5!
