So I had a quick play. I can reproduce. It seems to be specific to when the DBus is used to open a new window. Ctrl+Shift+I is OK. The problem only occurs when you use the main menu to open a new window.

By the way, it is not necessarily only when the first window is maximised.

A temporary workaround is to disable the DBus interface. This can either be done in the Terminator preferences in the Global tab, or by adding the option "-u" to the launcher in the system menu editor. Note that this will increase resource consumption, because now, each time you use the launcher you will get a whole new process. It is better to use the shortcut for an attached instance generally if you want to keep resource usage low.

But there is something peculiar going on with xfce then with new windows. I'll set this to Triaged till I (or some other interested party) find the time to investigate further.
