Working example of waht I'm talking about:
http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~unk6/transluxent/ 


Real transulcency and shadows using OpenGL acceleration like OS X. With
acceleration X can do anything, mvoe windows very smoothly , be very responsive,
etc. Anythng OSX or Longhorn and XP can do with the interface so ca X with
OpenGL accelearation and it would actually take up less CPU time on a decent
computer with a 32 MB+ graphics card to have shadows, translucency and the likes
enabled than X currently is.

So if we have the drivers and this si implemented, linux will be fast an not
just the kernel, to the user  it will be very fast too.
