Depending on whether it's in the pure compiz package or in the
compiz-fusion extensions, you should report at bugs.freedesktop.org or
bugs.opencompositing.org respectively.

Gentlemen,

'Fade to Desktop' is the offending plugin. On my system, if enabled, 
you get the above behavior. Disable it, the run command dialog returns 
to working fine. Is there an official bugzilla where I should report 
this, or, is this list sufficient to get it to the developers? Thanks.
