But Gnome 3 is new to CentOS. In fact Gnome 3 was the main reason I stopped using Fedora and moved to CentOS in the first place.

Thanks for the info though. It appears that dconf-editor is just a graphical front end to gsettings. In my original post, I mentioned some of the gsettings commands that I had already tried.
I eventually found the right one by searching through one by one - my original comment about the documentation still stands.

For others searching the archives in the future, the command that stopped the awful auto-maximise is:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.classic-overrides edge-tiling false

Intuitively obvious, right?... yeah.

Job #1 - make it less annoying - check.
Job #2 - make it less ugly...
