Fullscreen windows should be unredirected by default, since only then users will get optimal performance also when running full screen applications like games. Currently users need to learn about the compiz setting (CompizConfig Settings Manager (package compizconfig-settings-manager) -> Composite -> Unredirect Fullscreen Windows), which is going to work only for a small portion of the user base, and naturally need not to be affected by the bugs currently caused by enabling unredirecting.
