For what it's worth, kwm (the KDE window manager) puts the maximize button on every dialog that I tried, except for the new image dialog - even dialogs that are menu tear-offs. Maximizing the menu tearoff does not actually maximize it though, which makes sense to me, given how most of the other dialogs resize themselves when maximized. Though I don't see this as being much of an issue personally, the KDE window manager handles it as you seem to expect. Chris
