Binary package hint: compiz

I have the following settings in CCSM:

Window Decorations -> General -> Decoration windows: "(any) & !(class=Gnome-terminal)"
Window Decorations -> General -> Shadow windows: "any"

(corresponding gconf settings listed below)

Gnome-terminal windows correctly have no window decorations. However, the also do not have any shadow.

It looks like the shadow is only ever applied to decorated windows; this makes it impossible to specify "shadow, but no decoration" on windows.

gconf dump of /apps/compiz/plugins/decoration:

/apps/compiz/plugins/decoration/allscreens:
  /apps/compiz/plugins/decoration/allscreens/options:
   shadow_color = #000000ff
   command = /usr/bin/compiz-decorator
   mipmap = false
   shadow_opacity = 0.5
   shadow_x_offset = 1
   shadow_y_offset = 1
   decoration_match = (any) & !(class=Gnome-terminal)
   shadow_radius = 9
   shadow_match = any
