Answer 1

Right click title bar, then choose 'float', it will only get that window, not the whole panel. Then double-click to maximize.

Also, the commands are

Window.Float
Window.Dock

and you can assign them keyboard shortcuts under tools\options. So for example I mapped them to Ctrl-Shift-F7 and Ctrl-Shift-F8, and then after once maximizing the Output window, henceforth if I have the output window docked, I just focus it and then a key makes it big and other puts it back, hurray.
