Screenshot
SUMMARY
The overview effect currently shows widgets and icons. This can make the
overview confusing, as you see widgets which appear to be on the same level as
the windows. Also, if a user has a lot of icons on the desktop, this can
interfere with legibility of the window titles. This means this becomes an
accessibility issue as well.
The background should only show the wallpaper, without any widgets or icons, as
this would put all the focus on what is really important - the window previews,
not what's on the desktop.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the overview effect
OBSERVED RESULT
The icons and widgets on the desktop are shown together with the windows
previews, which is confusing.
EXPECTED RESULT
Only the window previews are shown.
