Bug Description
Hello,
The window-manager changes from metacity to compiz whether you use desktop-effects or not. As they don't behave exactly the same way, this makes the ubuntu-desktop user-experience inconsistent. I noticed one example, there may be more:
When you middle-click the "Maximize" button
- in compiz, the window is maximized vertically
- in metacity, the window is put behind all the others
I prefer the compiz behavior, but the point here is that both compiz and metacity should share the same one.

This isn't really a bug in Metacity or in Compiz; what you're really asking for is either that Metacity or Compiz should be the exclusive window manager in use or that an enormous effort should be expended on making the UI of each one exactly the same in every little detail. Both of those are far more far-reaching decisions than bugs in any one package.
