Just a few effects I'd like Compiz to do for me:

1) Adding depth to the windows when I'm on cube view; more recently active windows will stick out more from the cube. I'm pretty sure it can be done.

2) You know the minimizing effect you get on a Mac when you minimize a window to the dock? Can I get that when I minimize to a panel in GNOME?

3) Is there any way to get the size of the window to show up in a box as I resize it? The computers in my school's lab run Fedora 8 and they do this.

#3 can be done with the "Resize Info" plugin.

I can't figure out how to use the options menu for the animations. There are a whole bunch of unexplained parameters for each animation, and I don't even know what the command is to find its man page.
