That is actually the default behavior of Compiz Fusion I believe.
Have you gone into ccsm and configured the cubes? What happens when you
do
Control + Alt + Left Mouse Click + Mouse Movement do?

Ben,
I've played with ccsm at length to try to get the 3D behaviour, but with
no luck. In the 'Desktop' section I currently have Desktop Cube and
Rotate Cube enabled with all the default options chosen in each. Should
I be enabling some other plugins or making other changes in ccsm as well
to get the correct operation?
BTW, I'm not sure I exactly understood your question. When I
Ctrl-Alt-Right or Ctrl-Alt-Left the "cube" rotates properly to the
next/previous face or viewport. I also have Ctrl-F1 -> Ctrl-F9
successfully rotating to face 1 through 9 as well. That all works. What
isn't happening is that on Ctrl-Alt-Down I don't get a true 3D image a
Again, thanks muchly.

What you seem to want to do is to grab the cube and rotate it around
freely with the mouse. As Ben pointed out the default setting for this is:
Press and hold control and alt keys then also hold the left mouse button
down. Keep holding this combo and now move the mouse around. This is the
"Initiate" binding under "Cube Rotate" plugin
If you haven't already, take a look around www.compiz-fusion.org , useful
stuff there.
