Sure, because compiz-fusion is part of gutsy. If he installs feisty and
then wangles some third party compiz nightmare on top of that, it's not
going to be pretty come upgrade time. It may work fine, but a lot of bad
upgrades are because of people installing random packages from all over
the web, or compiling things from cvs/svn/lala without appreciating the
implications.
