Bug Description
Binary package: xfce4-terminal
This is a very minor inconvenience present in xfce4-terminal 0.6.3 shipped by default with xubuntu 14.04.
Steps to reproduce
1. open a new instance of xfce4-terminal
2. tile window (left or right)
The window will not occupy all the available space both vertically (full length) and horizontally (half length of the screen).
The effect is more obvious when there are at least 2 tabs opened, the space left being bigger.

I would prefer a continuous resizing instead of a grid based resizing.
I guess the grid is based on the font size. But other applications are all continuously resizing.
For example I prefer all Terminals on one desktop, usually 3 or 4 in a grid with tabs:
+------ ------+ ------- -----+ ------| ------- -----| ------+ ------- -----+
|t1|t2|t3 |t1|t2|t3 |
|------
|sh $ |sh $ |
| | |
| | |
| +------------+
| |t1|t2|t3 |
| |------------|
| |sh $ |
| | |
| | |
+------
Now it is quite impossible to align the 3 windows without gaps due to gridded resizing.
A work-around would be to have snapping to ignore the grid.
