Bug Description
Now that it is possible in Unity to drag maximized windows down to restore them, it should also be possible to arrange them using the middle click mouse button on the top panel to push maximized windows to the background.
This feature has been present in Ubuntu for a long time already, but the introduction of Unity and the changes its brought have left a small gap here.
Middle clicks to the top panel when it is displaying information for a window that is not maximized should be ignored (since the user can middle click in the windows title bar instead), or maybe just push a maximized window that is already below the focused window even further back.

I confirm that the unused (non-menu, non-indicator) space should behave
as a proxy for the titlebar, BUT implementation is up to the Unity team."
This basically means that the panel (less the menu portion) will act exactly as a window title bar should act in the maximise state.
