I probably won't be improving KWin for awhile myself either. It works
and I got other alpha stuff I want to get finished before 2.2. I also
need to find a job ;-) Most of my work is going towards widget styles
and Pixie right now.

Feel free to hack it if you like. You just need to draw lines or fills
whereever it's showing blanks with NoBackground.
