Posting the short conversation from irc, so it is not lost:

<mbiebl> do you know what the gnome support in compiz 0.8.x does?
<mbiebl> it uses libgnome-window-settings, which is scheduled to be removed
<mbiebl> and I'm wondering what to do about that
<seanius> was it for cheating / cloning the keybindings maybe?  my
memory here is a bit vague
<seanius> er, no, that's the libgnomecompat plugin
<seanius> mbiebl: taking a brief look in ./gtk/gnome it looks like it's
for registering the wm/decorator with gnome
<mbiebl> seanius: so it shows up in gnome-control-center?
<seanius> mbiebl: and it looks like it also hooks into config changes,
so probably includes some kind of support for keeping gconf settings etc
in sync
<seanius> i don't actually have a system i can test on atm
<seanius> just looking int he sources
<seanius> mbiebl: yeah, and control-center stuff too
<mbiebl> given that g-c-c 3 no longer uses libgnome-window-settings, I'm
wondering if this gnome support is still functional
<mbiebl> i.e. if we'd actually lose functionality by using --disable-gnome

Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the
universe are pointed away from Earth?
