If a window requests exactly screen size, it will be floating
and cover the screen (this has to be done to support
fullscreen-windows like mplayer, xpdf -fullscreen etc.).

No, but it's simple:
A new window will be floating,
- if it inherits the current tag AND the floating layer is focused
OR
- if an associated ~-rule matches the windows class:instance or name
OR
- if it has set the WM_TRANSIENT_FOR hint, it inherits the
tag of the main window and will be floating
