Isn't Fluxbox' appeal that it's minimalistic, elegant and relatively light?
Fancy effects witch compiz-delivers kinda goes against all that.
I have found the fancy effects to be both elegant and relatively light on resources - albeit unstable at times depending on the video card in use, but IMHO this wouldn't go against the Fluxbox appeal.
Anyway as both are window managers I doubt it will ever be possible.
