This is strong evidence that the behavior > is a bug. A gvim bug. An ugly gvim bug. Whether bug or a feature, it is irritating. Everytime I maximize or open new tabs gvim tries to adjust its window. I am having a workaround right now, not nice one, but better than before. Click "windows operations menu" (ALT+F3 in KDE), then Advanced --> Special Application Settings. Go to "Windows Extra" tab, select only "Normal Window", deselect everything else. Now go to "Geometry" tab tick the "Size" option. Then fill up whatever size you need for gvim. But now, the gvim window can not be restored or maximized, it will just be in size what you have filled.
