I tested with Gutsy Tribe 5; the problem no longer occurs there. I tested with both gedit and Firefox. In both cases, opening new child windows from a maximal-height window results in a child window that can be freely moved and resized.
The inconsistent behaviour is gone, and I think the inconsistency was resolved in the right direction. I suspect the common use case is: User immediately wants to resize or move a new child window. Maximized constrains resize or move, so I think avoiding maximized for new windows is the Right Thing. I'm satisfied with the Gutsy behaviour.
