You mean that maximized windows on other viewports become unmaximized on
restart?  Hmm...  I hadn't seen that, but after some playing around I've
been able to reproduce it.  Seems to happen when a window is maximized
in one direction and then maximized in another as well....

I saw the same error once (when maximizing virtualbox on a new
workspace), but haven't been able to reproduce it since.  It's probably
in maximize-window-fullscreen, probably because the find-head call there
is returning nil for some reason.  Maybe some kind of timing issue --
both virtualbox and evolution are rather heavy...?  If you can come up
with a way to reproduce it let me know.

Oh, yeah, I should do that.  Thanks!
