At least this can be made as an option.

I really felt that it avoids unnecessary window maximising to cover complete desktop.

And you can give the option through switchboard setting

And guys, really good work. Once your stable release is out am done with Ubuntu. I would switch to Luna

Subject: Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Window Maximize Concept

I completely disagree. First of all, this is one of the most hated design
decisions of OS X.

Secondly, we want users to have a welcoming experience from other distros
and operating systems (namely Windows 95+)

Now, another argument which has been presented by shnatsel is that not all
windows have fixed width/height, some of them are dynamic and the width
they need when you maximize a window might not be the same some time later.

It could be an option, but I hope never the default behavior.
