AFAIR, having transparent/semitransparent windows from AppVMs is a potential security problem: rogue software may overlay hard-to-spot windows on top of legitimate software to get confirmations/other actions performed by an unsuspecting user.
So if something like this gets ever implemented in the GUI daemon (maybe when wayland is supported?), I hope that I can disable the functionality; it would be even better if that was disabled by default, and had to be turned on by the user. -- Alex -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
