I suppose that the set of people using multiple maximized frames is
small so we can ignore the flickering issues in this particular case.

Handling the minibuffer parameter associations OTOH seems tedious: IIUC
we'd have to give each saved window an identity, assign that identity in
`window-state-get', and have the saved frame minibuffer parameters
reference that identity if necessary.  Then we'd have to do a
`set-frame-parameter' to restore the original relationship from saved
identities in `window-state-put'.
