I'm iffy on hiding the dock for *any* maximized window, but then again I
personally think Maximized apps should be all alone on their workspace (and
that's how I work) so it doesn't really affect me. I guess we'd have to ask
people who use unfocused, maximized apps :p

But I don't doubt that the multi-monitor thing should be changed.
