Yes in fact. It looks like its not done by the callback. Question is, would it make sense to do it?
Maybe, although it depends what it's used for. If the idea is to use it sometimes to concentrate on a lot of code, I'm not sure the sidebar would get in the way. I suppose it depends how wide your source files are.
And how big your font size is. But in general yes, when keeping 72 or maybe 80 chars it shouldn't be a problem even on smaller screens (for normal font size).
I changed the vague title so people interested in the behaviour might notice this thread, if they haven't already collapsed it.
I would further argue that toggle all widgets should be combined into full screen. I'm guessing 99% of the use cases of full screen are going to be to expand just the source window.
No, I disagree. They can be used independently for good reasons.
As Nick is also right, I'd like to suggest another option for this but I'm afraid this will be make it more complicated to understand for the user. However, I could imagine - Keeping Fullscreen out of this function - Toggeling also sidebar would at least be a good solution for me as I usually have the sidebar nevertheless closed.
