It may be a feature rather than a bug. If your window manager is set
to maximize a window as a result of a click or double click on the
title bar of a window. Some such settings can result in an accidental
invocation. One system I have worked on caused the window to roll up
like a window shade if you just pause the cursor too long over the
title bar. May be cool to some folks, it is a PITA to me.
