The area for maximizing windows is 1024x768, but the window requests smaller maximum size than \
that -> KWin will therefore not allow maximizing of the window. That is what you are doing to \
prevent the Maximize button from appearing. There is nothing in KWin to fix to work properly.

I admit the window in this very specific case could actually fit, since the difference is \
exactly the border size, but since that can change dynamically, I don't find it worth the \
effort to do something about it just because you're trying to be smarter than the window \
manager.

The fix for you is simple though - just drop the nonsensical maximum size, as there's no point \
in setting it (for example, what you say in comment #8 makes no sense, since maximum size has \
nothing to do with components of the desktop covering a window). If you for some reason need \
this for some broken window manager, I see in the code you have special cases for some window \
managers, so keep it just for those window managers (or alternatively opt out for window \
managers like KWin that can figure out the obvious on their own).
