  I don't have anything concrete and I'm not that concerned about whether the 
text is Maximized, Maximizing or just Maximize because it's easy enough to 
figure out what it means regardless of which one you use.

  How? What else could top left corner mean? How would one have even the 
slightest clue what zero corner means without already being familiar with how 
screen coordinates work? Even the tooltip says the window is placed in the top 
left corner, not the zero corner.
