  Regular users don't have any idea what Compiz is (or was). Our user interfaces are designed for normal people, not technical experts.
  
  Anyway, we can continue the discussion in D22894 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D22894> now that I've submitted it. I wound encourage KWin folks to give the VDG the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the user interface though, the way we have been encouraged to give KWin developers the benefit of the doubt regarding implementation details.
