I'm experiencing this as described here :

Move/resize both suffer from the same problem. This is on Wily.

The fact is that compiz has a "pushGrab" interface that tries to get X grab for both keyboard and pointer, even if that is not needed. We need to rework this.

---------------
compiz (1:0.9.12.2+16.04.20151026-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Move: remember the type of movement and use the proper grabbing for
    it (LP: #1487637)
  * Resize: remember the type of movement and use the proper grabbing
    for it (LP: #1487637)
  * Screen: add cursorChangeNotify function and call it on
    XA_RESOURCE_MANAGER
  * Screen: add pushKeyboardGrab and pushPointerGrab methods to add
    different kinds of grabs
  * Screen: monitor root RESOURCE_MANAGER and update cursors when Size
    or Theme changes (LP: #1359211)
