<pitti> Amaranth: is there a chance that some users actually use the gconf 
backend?
<Amaranth> pitti: the only way to use the gconf plugin has been to edit 
/usr/bin/compiz
<Amaranth> pitti: and none of the settings tools work when the gconf plugin is 
being used (they end up switching you back to the ccp plugin)
<pitti> Amaranth: so why exactly was it removed now?
<Amaranth> pitti: Because in the past if a user tried to load it (`compiz 
--replace gconf`) it would basically just ignore that because the ccp plugin 
was already being loaded. Now compiz loads all plugins specified on the command 
line and makes it impossible to unload them
<Amaranth> pitti: So now the gconf plugin is actively interfering with the ccp 
plugin and causing the issue mentioned in that bug report

OK, thanks. Ack'ed.
