I must thank you for that Metacity tip. I was always under the impression this was 'hard-coded', never occured to me to look in gconf. It does however make resizing windows an ugly experience ;) Another feature Metacity lacks is making windows sticky on top.

If you go into Gconf configuration editor, go into apps, then metacity, then general. Click "Reduced Resources". I believe that this setting will disable animation and the display of window contents while dragging/moving, etc.
With respect to the use of XFWM4 and GNOME, there are some issues with GNOME panel when using XFWM4. The panels will not be positioned properly on login and have to be repositioned manually. This is known and is in Bugzilla.
I am using the full XFCE4 desktop along with Rox instead of Nautilus and it is great.
HTH,
