Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
When I maximize a terminal window in one dimension - i.e. horizontally or vertically - it does not grow to fit the available space, leaving a gap around the window. When using a terminal with white text on black and a bright background image the effect is especially ugly. This problem also appears when using the new Unity conveniences, like Ctrl-Alt-Keypad4, or pushing the window against the desktop's border. It looks like it's getting as big as possible such that there are a whole number of rows or columns within the window. A simple maximize in both dimensions works fine. I assume this pads the window with the background colour. I think the same behaviour for vertically or horizontally maximized windows would look good.
