I think we are what could be called a semantic disagreement.
There is not a control-center-extra rpm installable in F14.

If you run : yum install control-center-extra

yum responds with:
Package 1:control-center-2.32.0-1.fc14.i686 already installed and latest
version
Nothing to do

Which is consistent with an interpretation of the postings you sent me
that the functionality of control-center-extra has been incorporated in
the rpm control-center.

Do you think it means something different?

In any case you can't run System->Preferences->Windows on your machine
if you have chosen to use compiz. So that the option to choose a window
when you move the mouse over it, is not directly available when using
compiz and that was really my point.
