As it's already the second branch with the exact same patch, let me copy here
why setting from 0.2 to 0 isn't the solution:
Indeed, if you alt + tab between two applications very quickly, you will then
see a flickering dialog appearing. The delay is there to prevent that and it
was discussed in natty as part of a design decision.
we already tried to change the popup delay from 0.2s to 0.0s, but design came
back because it's flashing when you just alt + tab quickly.
See the debian/changelog history:
compiz-plugins-main (0.9.4-0ubuntu4) natty; urgency=low
* 03_default_options.patch:
- revert the ubuntu change from 0s to 0.2s delay back to avoid flickering
- show other window when doing alt-tab and ensure that the settings are
according to LP: #736938
compiz-plugins-main (0.9.4-0ubuntu3) natty; urgency=low
* 03_default_options.patch:
- change default option from 0.2s delay to 0s for compiz staticswitcher
plugin
- don't get a close animation on gnome-screenshot (LP: #93234)
- Change <Super> + e to <Super> + s for switch workspace (trigger expo mode)
in the classic session as in unity (LP: #723273)
- deactivate mipmapping in staticswitcher as it can make alt Tab very slow
(some seconds) on some hardware (LP: #684843)
That's the reason why we reverted the change made in 0.9.4-0ubuntu3 as a design
decision. That's why I will have to disapprove this change.
