Bug Description

In previous Ubuntu versions (for example in 12.04) I was able to select system theme - at least between Radiance and Ambiance in gnome-control-center on Appearance tab.

In developing Ubuntu 14.04 I unable to change the theme in GNOME FlashBack session (Compiz and Metacity). On these sessions there is Background tab in gnome-control-center, so I can't change theme.

Please bring this functionality back on the final release of Ubuntu 14.04.

Please note: if I run Unity session I can change the theme - there is Appearance tab in gnome-control-center, but sometimes I use GNOME session and this bug is important for me.
