Hi Ego, Someone will probably give you a better answer, but I think this option existed a few versions ago, then was removed because too hard to maintain. Personnaly I really miss it. It was called intellihide I think.
It would be good to re-envisage to integrate that in the new Qt based unity 8. Maybe it's easier to maintain with Qt than Compiz ? Kévin.
