I wish LIM was in maximized AND unmaximized windows.

Certainly the behaviour of titlebar in maximized and unmaximized are different. if the global menu is insisted, then LIM can be implemented as dynamic.
However in my mind, for all things to be consistent. the windows controls should be present in both states, and the launcher be extended from the top and bottom. Once the above seems feasible, then LIM is present in both states and the global menu is set off(by option as wished). The windows control button be 5-6 mm from the top right corner, as it may solve the possibility of mistake of invoking the dash button while the window are in the maximized state. LIM icon be 3-4 mm from the windows control buttons and triggered by hovering. However the top panel is left to ponder. If the launcher is set to autohide. there would be extra behaviour for top panel to slide, which i dont like to happen. Another approach is the use of winged panel. the title bar of the maximized window to be blended with the winged panel -- ---------------------------------------- With Love and Regards, Roshan P Koshy
