I think this is because the accounts window is a modal one, and as such
the window manager mandates that it must always remain centered in its
parent window. Consequently, moving the accounts window around means
that the parent window must move too, and for it to move it has to be
unmaximized.

Whether or not this is good from a user perspective is questionable, but
it seems to be the intended behaviour, so not a bug.
