After a bit of playing around, I think that all maximized (vertically,
horizontally, or both) windows end up in vp 0,0, and only if I'm in vp
0,0 when I restart.  Otherwise these maximized windows follow a definite
pattern:

 - If I'm in a 0,x vp where x>0, a maximized window is placed every x
   viewports, all in a single column.
 - If I'm in a x,0 vp the pattern is the same, but in a single row.
 - And the pattern seems to extend to x,y viewports.

Though why whether the window is maximized would be relevant is beyond
me.
