I was actually just playing with the new version of Megazoomer amid some SIMBL hacking I'm doing, myself, and discovered just how well this works with TextMate, so I dropped by to see if anyone had suggested it as a solution for the oft-desired full-screen-mode, and lo, here is this thread on the same day...
This certainly does raise my interest in the next-gen UI, with multi-pane editors and a more Mail.app-style replacement for the project drawer, etc. -- this mode will be *fantastic* when split-panes come to pass.
In the meanwhile, however, it's interesting to note that Megazooming just one window in a given app, you can still keep the menu bar hidden while navigating to other windows within the app, so you can e.g. create a blank "background" window, megazoom it, and then cmd-~ and scale your other windows up to reclaim the 20px of title bar space, have the totally blank background, etc.
I'm getting really tempted to hack Megazoomer to let you zoom multiple windows side-by-side into halves or thirds of the screen-width. After that, all we need is to support windows from multiple apps at once, and perhaps make the root magazoomed frame into a single split-view and bam! New micro-window-manager ;) -jrk
