Re: [Bug 1006434] Re: Show desktop plug-in fades windows out and ignores movement and movement direction settings completely once unityshell is enabled

 

I think what MC Return is trying to say is that unity overrides the
user-specified behaviour when either one of these plugins is loaded and
either it shouldn't, or unity should be marked as conflicting with those
two.

On a technical level, not overriding the behaviour is harder than it
sounds but patches welcome.
