Bug Description
Test case:
install compiz-plugins-main 1:0.9.4+
1) Compile and run the program attached in the bug report
2) Click the toggle fullscreen button and it should unfullscreen
3) Check if the fullscreened window appears in alt-tab (it should)
If you run an application under Unity that starts as fullscreen, you're stuck in fullscreen mode forever. The app can call gtk_window_
I'm attaching a simple C GTK test program that demonstrates the problem. Compile it as specified in the comment at the beginning, then run it with no arguments. It starts up in fullscreen mode. When you click "toggle fullscreen", it calls gtk_window_
You can also run the program with an argument of 0 if you want to test it starting up in normal non-fullscreen mode, then toggling into fullscreen, to see the difference in behavior.

Same bug happens with compiz + classic ubuntu (on natty), so this looks like a compiz bug...
