Well, I haven't thought about this too hard yet, but I'd like to
see more flexible maximisation.  Right now there's
frame_maximize_horiz() and frame_maximize_vert() which toggle
frame->flags bits FRAME_MAXED_HORIZ and FRAME_MAXED_VERT,
respectively.

I'd like to implement a "fill" version of these functions that
maximizes until it bumps into another frame (or the dock, etc).
I know this could be done entirely in lua, but it seems like some
integration with the existing functions would be nice, so that
de-maximization could take advantage of the existing
frame->saved_x, frame->saved_w, etc.
