I've updated compiz so that show desktop mode works better. It's more
like metacity's behavior but not exactly as I'm not convinced metacity's
way of doing it is the best. Let me know what you think.

I don't like to keep pixmaps around for unmapped windows. Eventually
when we can do input transformation, windows will likely not be unmapped
at all when being hidden and this will work a lot better. For now, I
suggest that we just show an icon for windows that are not mapped.
