More interestingly, when you see the windowBoundingRect altered by the placement of the IDE's tool palette, does a maximized window respect the new windowBoundingRect as it does on Windows, or ignore it as it does on Linux?

I could add all sorts of additional geometry for the edge case in which someone wants to have both the devo window and the tool palette open at the same time AND in a position which prevents use of one or the other....

Or the IDE team could just not monkey with the windowBoundingRect based on the occasional position of a single window which is different from what happens in other positions, different from what happens in other windows, and different from what happens in other apps.

Which would seem more beneficial for the larger number of LC scripters?
