Comment 25 for bug 455378

Thinking about this more... There are situations where I want full-screen and maximize to mean different things... At work with VLC, it definitely means "span all screens" so that F11 in Vinagre or Remmina can work effectively with my remote workstations, so that some games can span multiple windows when in full-screen, or so that my Excel application will either full-screen or Maximize to multiple monitors for those /really/ big spreadsheets... However, I may want full-screen to mean "span 1 screen" when I am viewing a DVD or full-screening/Maximizing my email client, /sometimes/ full-screening or maximizing a Terminal session, or running OoLite with only 2 monitors.

So... is there a (script-able) way to configure Compiz to switch between full-screen and maximize modes?
