Does Ctrl-M do what you want? It maximizes/restores the active editor
or view...

When you have multiple editors open at the same time and "split" within
the editor area, Ctrl/Command + M (or double-clicking and editor tab)
maximizes the entire editor area, not just the editor that has focus. I
actually like it that way, but I can't find any way to get the behavior
that niksfirefly is asking for.

I'd suggest looking in Bugzilla to see if it's been requested:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs

Or try asking on the Platform forum group.
