When you maximize a tabbed chat window, the special hidden Plus! window again catches this and the visible chat window is maximized this time. However, the other chat windows (which are disabled since they aren't the top-most chat) are not maximized, they stay at their original size, disabled.
But it does the same thing when only one conversation is open too, while tabbed chats are enabled in Plus!.
yes, the number of chats doesn't matter. Even if you have only 1 chat open, that special Plus! window is used (when tabbed chats is enabled).

Also if I close the window and reopen any convo window, it is maximized again. I checked the messenger's registry entry "IMWindowMax" after maximizing the window and it was set to 1. So the hidden Plus! window catches the maximize action but it doesn't prevent the original messenger from changing its registry entry accordingly. Whatever, lets see if Patchou can overcome this issue
It shouldn't overcome this. What you described here is normal expected and logic behaviour. Whenever you close a chat window, its position, size and state is stored. Whenever you open a new chat window, it is displayed with that same previous position, size and state.

correct.
