Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
After I un-dock my laptop (using 1280x1024 on external monitor) and switch to using the laptops internal 1024x768 display, firefox is in some strange way maximized even over the top/bottom panels. The top bar is not visible.
I have attached a screenshot which shows all that I see on my screen.
I try alt-space to get the menu which you can use unmaximize from but it has no effect. I also try resize but it doesn't work.
I can from the bottom right corner get the mouse pointer to change to the one that is used when resizing windows but I cannot resize.
I know of no other way than to re-dock the computer, start firefox and close it unmaximized with a small window size and leave it on the top left corner.
$ apt-cache policy firefox

Tried starting from command line with 'firefox -width 100 -height 100 (and a few different values) but that doesn't have any effect at all. Seems like it's always maximized.
