I, for one, don't maximize any applications other than my editor - and emacs has panes, so those things aren't maximised either. I also don't move or resize windows except when I'm forced to use a single monitor. My windows are distributed such that any two that need to be visible at the same time never overlap. Code under test, including a web browser and terminals are on my left monitor. My main web browser, debugger and editor / IDEs are on the right. It's really rare to have them mixed.
