I'm waiting for my approval emaill from the kde3alpha mailing list, but in
the meantime, I'll post here what I intend to post to that list in hopes
that someone here is a KDE developer and can suggest or implement this in
the community.

The new version of QT adds hardware accelerated alpha channel support.
Since KDE3 will use the latest version of QT, would it be possible to place
a slider on the title bar of every application which would allow one to
change the app from 0-100% opacity?  That way, I can sit and browse sites
with a semi-transparent konqueror, and still watch what is going on in
windows behind it.  A mod like this would be sweet eye-candy, but also quite
useful from a productivity standpoint (since I routinely have about 20
windows open, or more).

Thoughts?
