Does GTK not have any way of knowing how big a window will be when maximized? 
  Should I be asking this question on a GNOME list?  Is there simply no 
portable way of doing this?

Perhaps this is information that GTK *SHOULD* make available to apps - part of 
the point is to hide the system-dependent hassles from the app, right?

Putting it into GTK+ 2.22 or whatever doesn't solve my problem now, but maybe 
it's the right thing to do.
