Yes, but I thought there is a command in the window manager API that allowed an application to make a request to maximize the window.



Maybe there is, yet even if there is, it doesn't mean that gvim takes advantage of it. In particular, and in constrast with M$-Windows, under X there are many possible different window managers. (I don't know but I suspect that) this multiplicity might make the matter more difficult.
