Afaics it should be sufficient to check for a WA_TranslucentBackground 
attributed toplevel window, yesno? (Works here, konsole is "autoblurred" from 
bespin, kate not even translucent)

Yakuake would probably have to override the area once more (and this is the 
main conflict - we'd need an "_NET_I_KNOW_BETTER flag to ensure applications 
can override this, but this would sooner or later break with 
bespin/oxygen/qtcurve blurring support... =\
