> Surely you can't be serious in saying that we can only expect Ubuntu
to work if we stick with strictly "standard" options!

I didn't say that nor closed the bug, I just lowered the importance
because it means most users will not be affected by the issue, only few
technical users go out of their way to go and change such options

> Does that mean that if I include more launchers than are there by
default, or if I decide to change the panel to display the day and
month, not just the time, then I can't expect it to work because it's
not a standard option?

Those are standard options, Ubuntu provides an user interface in its
default installation to change them and they are fully supported

> That's just silly. I expect minor bugs and issues to arise, so I'm not
about to go on a rant about this issue, but your regression test suite
really should include not just one standard configuration, but other
common configurations and boundary cases too. Don't you think?

Compiz has tons of compiz, it's already hard enough to test cover the
default installation configuration, not speaking about the number of
combination you can get by tweaking every single possible compiz setting
... and yes it's almost impossible to properly support all of those,
that's why there are effort to reduce the number of options provided and
to stick to the ones we can support

Note that using 1 workspace is something we want to support so don't
worry this bug will not be closed and the issue should be fixed at some
point (though it might take a while due to resources issues)
