Don't rely on the value of "grabbed" to tell you if the root window is
presently accepting key events (meaning there are no external active grabs).
There are some edge cases where grabbed is false but root is still accepting
key events, so when that happened compiz would ignore its own key shortcuts
(LP: #953089)

This was a regression caused by the fix for LP: #806255. The fix for that
bug has now been redesigned to avoid causing LP: #953089.

Don't allow plugins (unity) to interfere with tap detection by blocking
compiz-core from handling key events (LP: #960831)

Bump version to 0.9.7.3. At least until we have a release candidate 0.9.7.4

Use gconf_client_dir_exists as gconf_client_get_* doesn't set GError if
the dir doesn't exist in the gconf database. (LP: #953839)

Final news updates for 0.9.7.2

Revert the fix for LP: #946887. It's obviously an unsafe optimization and
has caused a regression (segfault) in some cases. (LP: #958540)

3060. By Alan Griffiths on 2012-03-19

Don't crash if plugins don't provide either initiate or terminate.
(LP: #808007)

Remove logic to cancel a tap on focus change. It's no longer required since
r3050, and looks like it might be contributing to incorrect tap detection
in some cases with empty workspaces (LP: #953089)

3058. By Daniel van Vugt on 2012-03-17

Update NEWS and VERSION to prepare for 0.9.7.2 release candidate.

3057. By Daniel van Vugt on 2012-03-15

Fixed: Changing the HUD shortcut disables all Alt-based combinations
(LP: #945816)

More accurately; Changing any hotkey whose default or previous value was
a single modifier key would disable all other combinations with that modifier.
This was a regression caused by lp:compiz-core r3050.
