I could be wrong, but I think that that button is Windows-specific;
PgAdmin is a cross-platform tool.

It depends on the window manager. On Gnome 3, the windows key doesn't
trigger anything, and the Alt-F10 combo makes the window maximize on the
selected screen. On KDE, it seems to be the same than Gnome 3.

Well, it's important to know so that we don't change the behaviour on
Mac and Linux.

So, to conclude, yeah, it would be interesting to handle these keys.
Kinda weird that wxWidgets doesn't respect that already. Will check.
