Dear Maintainer,

Now that Compiz is back in unstable, I am using it again. I prefer to use
Compiz with XFCE.

However, under Compiz the workspace switcher has the wrong aspect ratio for
each workspace.

Apparently, this is a bug reported upstream.
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11697

I am reporting it here because there is a patch in that report, and Arch Linux
even has a modified package for the XFCE panel.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xfce4-panel-compiz/

It would be cool if Debian could fix this problem, as Arch has, until upstream
fixes it.

Dear Maintainer,

The ratio bug seems to come back (#785582 has a patch worked before
4.18) that shows viewports in wrong proportion. This patch tries to
revert ratio to screen ratio when virtual workspace is bigger than
screen: see 03_pager-ratio-for-viewport.patch
