Travis Watkins : This bug is now confirmed for compiz, wobbly enabled or not, as shown by Alexander Hunziker. This is due to bug #221698 that has been fixed by disabling /apps/compiz/plugins/move/allscreens/options/constrain_y in gconf defaults in version 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu14. This has been done to make compiz more consistent with metacity, in each case, compiz does not work exactly like metacity (constrain_y enabled, it refuses to move a window over panel even with ALT, constrain_y disabled, it let any window go under panel without any resistence).

Also important to notice that the initial bug is not fixed either, enabling /apps/compiz/plugins/move/allscreens/options/constrain_y bring back the good behavior, which works perfectly as long as you don't use wobbly. The problem is still there with wobbly. Compiz developers said that it was probably fixed in latest git, are we using latest git? If this is the case, it might be good to re-open the upstream bug.
