Thanks for the cheat sheet, Rahul, useful. Almost there as far as Compiz goes -- if we could snap to grid with key bindings, that would be ideal. Using the mouse for these kinds of tasks is, IMO, not ideal, but I guess Gnome 3 is catering to the mobile/tablet user as well.
I'll play around with Mate + Compiz, and Gnome 3 a bit more, have yet to dive in, just first impressions so far.
