The issues I have found are these.

Compiz does not honor the strut when it places windows, so if you have a top 
panel, it is frequently the case that the panel covers the title bar of a 
window that is newly opened.  There is nothing we can do for this beyond hoping 
Compiz fixes it because the window manager controls window placement.

Compiz Wall and Cube use viewports rather than desktops to represent the 
multiple screen pages.  The panel as it exists is insensitive to viewports and 
thus the pager and the other controls on the taskbar right click menu to move 
windows between screen pages don't function properly.

In lxsession-logout, it uses a fullscreen window to gray out the screen and a 
separate dialog window to put up the controls, both of which it attempts to 
place above all others.  This works well in Openbox.  In Compiz, I find that 
sometimes the fullscreen window draws after the dialog and covers it so you are 
stuck.  I have solved this by using one fullscreen window that contains 
everything.

There are a couple minor issues with what Compiz reports in _NET_SUPPORTED.  At 
some point I will send some patches upstream for these.
