Ah, many of us have talked to the same Red Hat employee. His refusal to accept a simple patch to toggle horizontal and vertical maximization is what drove me to use the KWin window manager to show my Gnome desktop (works great, btw). Basically, he required that the h/v-maximize patch also "fix" the current atom behaviour, turning clean tens of lines patch into a few hundreds of lines of gobbledygook. If this continues to be the case, I'm skeptical that Metacity will EVER support toggling h/v-maximization.
