Can you explain the screen tearing thing? I'm running kwin on X and I don't notice any screen tearing (including doing things like moving windows around rapidly with the "wobbly windows" effect on).

That is because you use a compositor, which composites the screen in a separate buffer before presenting it. But in my experience, there were some edge cases where something like videos would tear.
