If I may add as a user, I too find the maximize option in the shorter menu 
very hard to get to. I primarily use maximize horizontal or maximize 
vertical, since I still want to see the content of some window underneath or 
beside the maximized window. Because this was always quite difficult to 
reach, I hacked into e.cfg and changed the signal bindings for the maximize 
button on the window. Left click -> max, Right click -> Max horizontal, 
Middle click -> max vertical.

Overall, I think it is quite difficult to satisfy everyone. I do like the 
fact that Always on Top and Move  readily accessible in the shorter menu, 
and I do use those. But then the shorter menu also has some disadvantages, 
as i mentioned above. Also, someone else might not have any use for Sticky 
or Always on Top (I don't usually use Sticky).
