Luckily, GConf makes it extremely simple to write a configuration
editor.  Any python programmer could whip you out a configuration editor
specific to compiz in a week or less.

The problem is that configuration editors need UI love just as much as
the main application.  Have your wife/father/ten-year-old try to find a
few *specific* options in Beryl and tweak them and you'll see what I
mean.  The interface exposes all the options but it doesn't organize it
sanely.
