In KDE this would cause the window to maximise and cover the whole desktop
screen/monitor. If on the other hand you just drag the window there, but
*without* slamming/pushing it against the top of the screen, then it does not
maximise and stays at its original dimensions.
Now, the problem is that the threshold between pushing it and not pushing
against the boundary is a fine one and when in a rush ...

Pulling away from the top edge and moving it sideways will return it to its
original dimensions, but I agree it can be almightily annoying when in a rush.
