I guess they didn't think of this until later :) In GNOME 2.20 (which I'm running now on OpenSolaris), the Maximize Horizontally/Vertically shortcuts are just a toggle, so you can just press them again to get back to the previous size. Not sure which version of GNOME this landed in, though. I'm pretty sure there are existing bugs open about making these functions available via mouse, but feel free to file one if you can't find them.
