It is, you replace metacity with a more featureful  window manager. Metacity
has a lot of problems right now - windows sticking to the mouse, small screen
handling flaws and buggy resizing but given its goals I don't see why you
are moaning about the configuration stuff.

Metacity is a simple window manager for basic stuff anyone can in theory 
use. Its like complaining gedit isnt fully emacs equivalent, you don't
'fix gedit' you use emacs.
