It could flicker often, but the problem of course magnifies when you suspend 
compositing (because things like present windows etc. won't work either)

Individual experience is, frankly, irrelevant.

Since you already run it with a shell export, you can just as easily block 
compositing around it.

And the truth is that a "single-checkbox solution" regardless of the backend 
(unredirection/suspension) does not work. For complete suspension it's actually 
a complete no-go.
Property hint control works. Rules work. Scripts (kinda dynamic rules) work.
"Yes or no" has been imprecise and will remain so, thus also your RR to sharpen 
it (regardles on whether implying "override_redirect = SuperMeatBoy = SDL" 
assumptions are reasonable)
