You don't need XGl for nifty 3D desktop paging. I've used 3ddesktop for that for years: http://desk3d.sourceforge.net/
I bound it to Alt+Esc, so when I want to impress some friends who are not familiar with the multi desktop aproach, I can use it quickly. Explains it instantly what I am talking about. And sometimes it could even be useful, since I recognice the desktop I'm searching for a little faster than with the window list I normally get.

But I'm curious how it'll look like when videos still run while paging and such stuff :)
