[Bug 879508] [NEW] Metacity is used instead of Compiz

 

Public bug reported:

When installing gnome-session-fallback, you get the option to login to a
gnome-panel session.

There are two options:
* GNOME Panel
* GNOME Panel (No Effects)

But both results in launching a session with GNOME Panel and Metacity.
It would make more sense sense to use Compiz for the 'GNOME Panel' session, and Metacity for the No Effects session.
