Switch to Compiz completely

Registered by Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff

We need to investigate if we can switch to Compiz completely because it doesn't require OpenGL since v0.9.

Whiteboard

As of Natty, Compiz is hardly usable without OpenGL plugin, not even close to Metacity with compositing.

They say that Unity 2D will use Compiz without OpenGL, let's see if it's OK for us. As of Oneiric feature freeze, Unity 2D still uses Metacity.

Since we've moved to Gala, marking as Obsolete. If there's a gala blueprint, feel free to mark superseded by that blueprint instead --DanRabbit.
