Bug Description
When opening a document, my opinion would be it should open in fullscreen mode (meaning, hide the header and the document window obscures everything including the indicator panel) such that the user can maximize their viewing area. Tapping the document when in fullscreen mode should toggle it back to windowed mode and display the header. Tapping again should toggle back into fullscreen mode and hide the header.
You can try the gallery-app and look at it's code lp:gallery-app to accomplish this. It does the same thing with pictures - they open in fullscreen mode and tapping will toggle in and out and reveal/hide the header appropriately.

Thank you for reporting this bug. Cannot give an ETA yet, since I prefer to fix zooming first (I could re-use the MouseArea for managing header behaviour).
I'll use this report for tracking the work on the fullscreen implementation.
For the header stuff, there's already an opened report: #1419468
