Apart from the decision whether GTK's client-side decorations should have
rounded or sharp corners (which is internal to GTK), gnome-terminal wants to be
able to decide between two modes:
* fit exactly into a space we've been given, and fill that space even if
it means leaving up to (1 character cell - 1 pixel) unused around the
edges
(MAXIMIZED, TILED or FULLSCREEN)
* behave as a normal "floating" window; constrain resizes to
character-cell-sized steps because that's all that makes sense for
a terminal
(none of those flags)
I would guess that tiling window managers (XMonad, Awesome, etc.) would
probably want to put every window in the TILED mode too.
GTK's API for this, GDK_WINDOW_STATE_TILED, is (quoting the docs)
"""
the window is in a tiled state
"""
and it isn't 100% clear which specific aspect(s) of tiling were meant by that,
but given that the API exists, it seems sensible for it to mean *something* in
Wayland.</pre>
