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.
