compiz - Apr 2006 - [PATCH] Implement window zoomin/zoomout on create/unmap

This patch makes windows zoom in and out of a zero point on 
create/unmap. I've cleaned up the formatting/style to be consistent with 
the rest of compiz (eg adding spaces around operators, tabifying, using 
C style comments).

This patch could use some more work. It should only apply to decorated 
toplevels, but right now it also affects XUL menus (I guess because they 
are not unmanaged like in GTK?). It also affects the tab switcher 
window, which looks OK but a bit _too_ distracting IMHO. And finally 
sometimes visual artifacts are left on scree, though this may be simply 
my video drivers (nvidia binary geforce4 mx 440).

I forgot to mention, the code duplication should be removed or reduced 
if possible too.

That happened even after I unloaded the plugin, so I guess it is not at 
fault.

Actually what windows it applies to is customizable in the window types
just as with most plugins.  Unknown is the type of things like XUL
menus, and my switcher (Not sure if this is submitted yet) calls itself
a Splash window.
