This makes the Sounds zoom behave the same as Tracker's zoom.

I assume you mean similar to how Tracker behaves? That might be nice, however, you then get into changing a consistent zoom behaviour for some apps. ShowImage and Web+ already have been made problematic by changes to their zoom behaviour. I don't know if it is worth making the behaviour inconsistent is really worth while.

I'm with diver here. The zoom button is not a Windows-like maximise button, but an alternative-size-button. It should always change the window size to what's appropriate. In general it should resize to an optimal size IMO, i.e. work like Tracker windows. It makes no sense to have the Sounds prefs window maximized to "fullscreen".
I also agree that ShowImage's and MediaPlayer's zoom buttons currently don't behave nicely in that regard.

Hi, thanks for working on this!

Please re-create and re-attach it with git format-patch so you'll be credited correctly. Please cf. SubmittingPatches. This will provide you with better recognition for the contribution.

B_NEED_MORE_COFFEE. Aside from the git format-patch, ignore the above comment. That text was meant for #9089.

Greetings,

Matt tested the patch and said that the vertical scroll-bar should be disabled when the window is Zoomed because it should re-size to a size where scrolling is not needed.

I don't agree personally. I think the size that it goes to is nice, and if that list gets longer then Matts suggestion will be ugly.

Korli?

(Also, sorry about uploading that patch twice... Trac re-uploads the file if you use the back-button after uploading.)
