the golden age of steam was that time around mid-2012 where a url went round that, when clicked, would change ur display pic to this image:

(that's the dying drive hanging out the side, hooking it up was hell thanks to my 9 year old non-modular psu)

i did some poking around and came up with a slightly better approach to forcing the window to un-maximise - this version activates on client name changes, then slaps a flag on the client so that the hack only triggers once, which should allow the window to be maximised normally after that (tho why u would ever maximize a window in a tiling window manager is beyond me)

"but why is the window starting maximised a problem? surely u want the window to fill the screen?"

true, but automatically maximised windows don't tend to behave themselves in a tiled window manager (in my experience at least). in this case, the window accounts for the size of the taskbar, but then centres itself vertically, covering half of it - hence the workaround
