Try metacity-setup? It works prety well for me.

metacity-setup still has a numer of things on the todo list  as far as 
keybindings and all go (if you want to expose those options to users), 
but themes (with instant apply), number of workspaces and font settings 
work well.

I am starting to wonder about this. Havoc was never for making metacity 
the default wm for gnome 2.0.x, since it was his pet-project. However 
with sun adopting it, and redhat also using it as default in their 
latest beta's, i would say it is progressing rather quickly.

Also, what standards are we using to measure maturity? Sawfish is nice 
(i used it for a long time and loved it) but it sure has its share of 
klunky problems as well.

Anyways, just wanted to chime in with my 2 euro cents, since i'm using 
it on a day-to-day bases now, and loving it ;-)
