> Can't Kwin override this behavior if it wants to?

If you just want to make sure that a particular application always starts
maximized, you can just use a window rule. Right-click the title bar, More
Actions > Configure Special Application Settings. Click Add Property, then
click the Add button (Plus symbol) for both "Maximized horizontally" and
"Maximized vertically". Apply, and it should always set that application to be
maximized when it starts. (If you're having trouble with this, feel free to ask
on discuss.kde.org, or ping me there under the same user name if you don't get
replies).

Remembering on the kwin side is probably hard to get right, as kwin does not
know which window is which (an application might have multiple windows that
look the same to kwin, same application and window title, but that are
different), and playing guessing games might lead to problems later. For KDE
applications please file a bug (thanks for the ones you already filed!), and
for older applications that are no longer being developed forcing a state with
window rules can be a workaround.
