No.  "fullboth" gets me a frame with no decorations, no title bar and no
sizing borders.  That's the usual F11 behavior with other applications
and is handled as such by Emacs here.

From

   A maximized window is a window that has the WS_MAXIMIZE style. By
   default, the system enlarges a maximized window so that it fills the
   screen or, in the case of a child window, the parent window's client
   area. Although a window's size can be set to the same size of a
   maximized window, a maximized window is slightly different. The
   system automatically moves the window's title bar to the top of the
   screen or to the top of the parent window's client area. Also, the
   system disables the window's sizing border and the window-positioning
   capability of the title bar (so that the user cannot move the window
   by dragging the title bar).

This is how applications like Firefox and Thunderbird maximize windows
here.
