I just tested your package. After having launched it from the KDE menu, it 
displays a very simple popup menu, that allows to choose between compiz or 
KWin. It is far from the possibility of the old beryl-manager. I am looking 
forward to a full port of beryl-manager to compiz-fusion.

The following line in kde-desktop-effects.sh are useless, because one cannot 
see them when launched outside of a terminal (eg with the KDE menu or the 
ALT-F2 launcher):
   echo "Save choice window manager to use it on next startup of KDE"
   echo "Remove ~/.kde/env/kdewm.sh if you encounter problems."
