This is mentioned tangentially in electron/electron#32360 as well.

on Jan 18, 2022 Chris Dias (@chrisdias) looks like Michaela Laurencin (@mlaurencin) is deep into it from the Electron side but it'd be nice to figure out "who owns" since it's starting at Chromium and working it's way up...but it's still not quite there https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1218921#c21 Maybe someone on your team can chat with her?
Is this not a duplicate of #127449 ?
I kept it separate to track the upstream issue related to hover effect for WCO #140932 (comment)
Can be merged to #127449 as the relevant fixes are available with insiders.

in Win 11 when you hover over the Maximize button you should see
This doesn't fire in VS Code, Teams (electron apps) or Windows Terminal (custom owner draw title bar)
The Electron Core (whomever is responsible for the Maximize button) needs to implement WM_NCHITTEST and reply with HTMAXBUTTON when the hit test is over top of the max button. That will tell Windows it's a Max button which helps Accessibility AND fires SnapAssist.
