This is the new standard behavior for most OS X apps and I think it would be nice to follow the convention.

Research direction
The issue requests adding full screen support via the green button on OS X 10.10+. Investigate Java's com.apple.eawt.FullScreenUtilities class to enable full screen mode. Look for existing window handling in the Arduino IDE source code, likely in platform specific files. Check the issue comments for any previous attempts or maintainer feedback.
