@bryonak:
I am sorry to tell you that there is no ETA for that fix to land yet as I have not had time to look into that issue yet.
TBH, it is not very high on my priority list, because I am personally using the cube and have wall deactivated.

You have to understand that the Compiz codebase is huge, we have over 50 plugins with hundreds
of different configurable functions to maintain.

While we are investing a huge amount of work in bug fixing
(see:
https://code.launchpad.net/~compiz-team/compiz/0.9.10  and
https://code.launchpad.net/~compiz-team/compiz/0.9.10/+activereviews
if you are interested in what is happening), 
currently just me and Sam are doing unpaid voluntary work to advance Compiz to new heights.

Bug reports with detailed information on how to reproduce the bug help, feature requests are also
welcome, patches are most appreciated and always welcome ;)

Regarding:
"- More importantly, the Cube doesn't seem to work with vertically aligned virtual desktops."

That is unfortunately true @ the moment.

"- It's much harder to figure out where you are: there is no overlay
during flipping as with the Wall, and it doesn't stop once you've
reached the edge, but wraps around."

I recommend to enable workspacenames to fix the which-viewport-
am-I-in?-confusion.

"Ideally, the Desktop Wall -> Edge Flipping buttons (at least move)
would start working again as they did yesterday :)"

Hmm, the last wall commit was this:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~compiz-team/compiz/0.9.10/revision/3640

but it has nothing to do with your issue...

Other than that unrelated issue, which has not yet landed in Ubuntu AFAIK, I have not seen any wall commits for some time now...
What I can tell you is that I will investigate it, once I start the wall cleanup, but this might take some time...
It is also possible that some other interference stops that from working and the wall plugin issue is not even responsible for
this issue...
Postponed for now.
