Just tried it on xfwm4 with compositing disabled, and the lack of rounded
window corners looks pretty bad when paired with the rounded panes.  It might
look better if you unrounded the pane corners when the window is unrounded.

(FYI, I like both the new theme with rounded corners and the old theme)
