I start FF; my main window is maximized already.  I type Apple-N to open a new window.  Two problems:

1.  The new window opens up as maximized (good), but begins immediately below the title bar of the old window, instead of taking up the full screen (bad).
2.  Even if I click on the (+) button in the title bar to maximize it, it doesn't maximize.  It takes the full height, but only 80% of the width.  If I keep clicking on the maximize button, FF never maximizes the window, it keeps alternating between these two semi-maximized states.

I really hope this isn't on purpose.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new window.
2. Click on maximize button in title bar.
Actual Results:  
New window is almost maximized; i.e. it is full width, but instead of beginning immediately before the system menu bar, it begins immediately below the title bar of the existing window.

If I click the maximize button, it takes on full height, but only 80% width.

Expected Results:  
The new window should be maximized like my existing window.  If I click the maximize button, it actually maximizes the window fully in width and height.
