I am not sure but perhaps this will open up some kind of possibility
to let you do what you want.

In general (and I'm not commenting on the relative ease of any of these) the options would seem to be


* actually fade the window contents to black - perhaps having first captured the entire
window into an image


* put something black /behind/ the window and fade the window to transparent

* put something black /in front of/ the window and fade that to opaque

I'd guess the third option is easiest.
