The logic is that frames store their size when they're specifically
shaded or maximised, and forget the stored size whenever they are
otherwise resized -- including resizing is enforced in a tiled layout
whenever some other frame is resized. Fixing these annoyances you've
pointed out, involves a different kind of logic not based on maximizing
individual frames, but altering the entire layout somehow.
