The problem is the complete unwillingness of Compiz hackers to budge
and the unwillingness of Ubuntu devs to maintain a diff. I suggest any
interested party:
1. Learns how to correct the behaviour in Compiz
2. Pushes a branch to Launchpad
3. Runs a PPA with the change
Then basically all of the work is done, people can use it and test it,
and it just needs to be merged.
