I love the chance to get bling

I love the chance to get bling on the desktop. It (Compiz) is installed by default in 7.10, but afaik there is nothing preventing you from uninstalling the package is there? Anyway, I had to deliberately turn on the desktop effects, and if I did not want them I need not have turned them on.
