Mostly these effects shouldn't impact the application at all. As an
application developer, what I care about right now is
-- fast XRENDER (especially fast subpixel-AA text)
-- windows with per-pixel alpha translucency (I've heard this is
possible, I probably just need to find documentation)
-- synchronizing window updates with the compositing manager, especially
during window resizing (if this is fully automatic already, great)
-- XRENDER extensions for accelerated SVG-style filters
-- fast XRENDER
