And if you hide the toolbar rather than maximizing the terminal (we agree that this last is a wrong solution as it is right now), what would you show instead? The background? It can be distracting also... A black strip? It wouldn't fit all cases...
I think the problem comes from another point. Where does this behaviour comes from? The terminal? The window manager? Xorg? I think the best solution would be to "fix" whoever is responsible for this. Don't take me wrong, all in all, hiding whatever is bothering you could be a solution, but take into account that hiding whenever a single window is maximized is not a "good" solution (I use the "theme" SideLine, which always hides the bottom taskbar, and additionaly, my maximized windows do not waste too much space).
