You've got it backward.  Compiz doesn't disable the application; the 
application is dead and not responding.  The greyscale is an indicator 
of this.  Previously, the indicator would be nothing gets (re-)painted 
in the window from the time the application froze, leading to weird 
artifacts or blank windows.
