I suppose so since otherwise we were not able to draw that correctly.
Note that the client rectangle refers to the part of the frame that is
controlled by the application, in our case Emacs.  The Gtk+ toolbar, for
example, is not part of the client rectangle as anything else that can
be obtained only via a frame's output_data.
