XFCE has a feature almost like this in its Workspace Margins. You could tell
it to leave a 633-pixel margin at the right side of the screen, and windows
will be maximized to the area except for that. You can't double-click to go
full-screen, but you can still resize (or move) the window manually into
that area.
