Ubuntu does

Keeping something simple to enable and disable compiz like option b is better.

AIGLX would be default for all the supported hardware so root access
is not required just to turn on compiz.

hmm, gnome-xgl-switch will still need root password, right?

Not sure if as a separate module, or just under the Display config in
YAST, since it's just one button ("Enable XGL").

To enable/disable Xgl root access is required and would be better in
yast, it might confuse users and they would enable Xgl anyway even if
AIGLX is enabled. we need to take care that user know that Xgl is
optional.

how does the user enable/disable aiglx in factory?
