User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

I'm browsing on my secondary window. The window is always maximized, but when I
click on an URL, the new window isn't maximized anymore. It will be in a
'restored window' mode instead of being maximized.
The previous Mozilla Firefox I had (0.9?) worked fine.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open Firefox.
2. get it to your secondary monitor
3. maximize the window
4. e.g. go to http://www.wkjw.tk
5. press on any link you see (enough choice :) )
6. you'll notice opened window is not maximized anymore

Actual Results:  
you'll notice opened window is not maximized anymore

Expected Results:  
the window should've still be maximized.
