Hi,

When a window is maximized so it fills the whole screen, its top border
is still shown. The top border in this state is useless though, since it
cannot be dragged to resize the maximized window. So it just wastes
space.

For most xfwm4 styles/themes this doesn't actually look too bad. But
with a theme with relatively thick window borders it can look quite
ugly. To see what I mean, change the window manager style to "Mofit"
then maximize a window.

I might have found the cause of the problem.

In src/frame.c, the frameTop() definition does not have similar checks
for CLIENT_FLAG_MAXIMIZED as the frameLeft(), frameRight() and
frameBottom() functions.

Should the frameTop() function be changed to read something like this?

int
frameTop (Client * c)
{
    TRACE ("entering frameTop");

    g_return_val_if_fail (c != NULL, 0);
    if (FLAG_TEST (c->xfwm_flags, XFWM_FLAG_HAS_BORDER)
        && !FLAG_TEST (c->flags, CLIENT_FLAG_FULLSCREEN)
        && (!FLAG_TEST_ALL (c->flags, CLIENT_FLAG_MAXIMIZED)     // This 
condition added
            || !(c->screen_info->params->borderless_maximize)))  // This 
condition added
    {
        return c->screen_info->title[TITLE_3][ACTIVE].height;
    }
    return 0;
}

Removing the top border when maximized would break most themes, not
something I would like just for a few themes such as the Motif like
theme.

Not something I would fix.
