I think this is a serious bug and Compiz should be turned off by default on all cards that do not fully support compositing. Users who can somehow live with this problem can always switch it on manually.
Yes, such decision would be called retreat, defeat or w/e but IMHO enabling obviously crippled software does more harm than good. Sooner or later users run into this problem, and go report it as a bug, flooding the bug system, or even worse, conclude that Ubuntu is alpha quality.
