Subject: Whole frame windows
Date: Sat, 9 Aug 2008 12:12:24 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <18588.57577.10349.904991@kahikatea.snap.net.nz> (raw)


I know there's a feature freeze, but how about something like below to
expand a window to the whole frame and back?  It's handy for many window
configurations like gdb-ui where the stack trace, for example, doesn't
always fit in the space available.  Eclipse has a feature like this, when
you double click on the window tab.

Seems pretty harmless to me and any release must be a long way away.
