it looks like when you maximize a snapped windows it just reverts to the last position before beeing snapped but this behavior is not very good IMHO. see attached screenshot (the position of the windows before snapped and if you maximize after it will return to that)

Agreed, we should be restoring the position the window was before you started dragging it.
