Almost all Windows applications remember the maximize state of their windows
the next time they start up. I've noticed that this is not true for
pgAdmin; by default it always starts up non-maximized. Changing the
shortcut's properties to force maximization works for the main window, but
new query windows are still non-maximized.
This is a minor issue, but saving the maximize state is a very
widely-accepted convention. Windows users are accustomed to closing a
maximized window by moving the mouse to the upper-right corner of the
screen. A window, i.e. a new query window, that always starts up
non-maximized can be irritating, because the usual gesture to close it ends
up closing the application behind it instead.

Using version 1.10.0 (also present in 1.8.4) on Windows XP Pro SP3
