I might give this a go, but I've never had great success with distraction-free modes. I tend to work better with as much information as possible - tmux, with vim (multiple tabs) and repl panes, as well as browser open for docs or seeing output if working on a web project. Generally I'll also use something like python-mode and have my code get shoved through a bunch of linters on save.

The ability to toggle quickly between modes can be useful. I've been doing more writing of late, and find I'm switching terminal clients (from rxvt to either the GNOME or XFCE terminals) for longer edit sessions -- the ability to scale up font sizes is helpful, as is the full-screen zoom of the more recent terminals. Centering text would be icing on the cake. Switching back to windowed mode is just an F11 key away for when I need to reference notes or style/syntax guides (mostly coding in LaTeX).
