Sounds like a good idea. But _GTK_HIDE_TITLEBAR_WHEN_MAXIMIZED would
have do be done for each app separately. It's not something the shell
does.
So this bug is now closed for gnome-shell, and should be reopened with
tasks for each affected application. To do that click on "Also affects
distribution/package" at the top of the bug.

Title:
gnome-shell window title bar wastes space when maximized
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce
Start Ubuntu
Login to Unity
Choose logoff
Choose Ubuntu (which should have the label Gnome-hell)
Note this is the only way to get Gnome-hell to start, starting it
directly just shows a black screen and dumps you back to the greeter.
(already created a bug report for that)
Open a program
Choose the Maximize icon alllll the way over on the right (thanks Gnome-shell
devs for causing more Mouse Arm for people with Hi-res screens, instead of just
moving the mouse up to the top to click my button, I now have to move it all
the way across the screen to the right)
The window maximizes but not to full screen. I get a weird double bar,
with the clock bar and the window title bar wasting valuable pixels.
On my professional systems at work, this means I can display one less
product on the screen, products being more important than the titel of
the window.
Please hide the window title when maximized. (or make it at least
optional)
