The older ICCCM does not contain an idea of maximization, but
the extended window manager hints spec -  
http://www.freedesktop.org/wm-spec.html does contain this concept
and many window manager now support the extended hints.

You'd want to watch from PropertyNotify events on your toplevel
for the _NET_WM_STATE property.
