Though it does work with the gsettings backend if the settings are set at the user level with either ccsm or:
gsettings set org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/Default/plugins/core/ active-plugins "['core','composite','opengl','decor','move','imgpng','place','resize']";
So I guess it is just from the gsettings vendor overrides that you can't use the setting path.
