I don't think I would personally use the full-screen mode, but I just 
want to relate this to watching a movie  for instance. The difference 
in size is slight between a full-screen mode and a maximized window, 
but I find it very distracting to have the menu bar there while 
watching a movie. So maybe some people would enjoy having nothing else 
but their code on the screen, less distractions.
Just being the devil's advocate here, as I said I personally don't see 
the need for this, but then again, I don't code that much.
How would it work anyway? Would Cmd-` still cycle through windows? 
Would you be allowed to have one window full-screen but others normal 
sized, and possibly on top of it?
