We already can: use the maximize button. On my main laptop every 
top-level window is always maximized, with the exception of Nautilus and 
terminal windows. In fact I often go months without seeing my desktop. 
It doesn't even matter how messy it is! Except that I just cleaned it up 
halfway through writing this message.
