I think it would be nice that Ristretto directly maximizes the image size, when opening an image.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open an image with Ristretto
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Ristretto opens a minimized image

Expected Results:  
Ristretto should open a maximized image

Ristretto reduces pictures that are larger than the screen size when you open them so that the entire picture fits into the screen, which is as a user would hope.

But I can confirm that it doesn't blow up pictures to full screen when they are smaller than the screen size. 

For me, this is a feature.  Displaying the best possible view (in light of the resolution and size) of the picture is what I hope the image viewer will do.  

I wouldn't mind seeing this change added as an option, but I wouldn't like to see it as the default behavior.

Bug is about making Ristretto open its own window maximized not picture. That is ok that if pic larger then window its fited in window. But for now ristretto opens so small i allways need to maximize so that makes me dont want to use programm witch i allways need to maximize.

Currently, I have implemented a 'maximize on startup' option, that will maximize the ristretto window when it opens an image from the CLI.

This option does not look at the image-dimensions to determine if the window should be maximized. It is a simple 'opening-image?' -> 'Y' -> 'maximize' check.
