Hmm this thread is rapidly heading towards moderation - like the last one we had on vibrancy.

To the original poster - nice that you made the suggestion/bug report to Apple, I don't think you're going to get far with that but who knows. I think the effort involved in rolling your own moving window which copies the screen background isn't going to be worthwhile, is going to be hard and probably rather flaky and anyone who even notices will probably just notice it works differently than everything else on the system and not like it. So I personally think you're a bit wasting your time if you try to fake that effect. Just my opinion.

And for anyone, like me, who doesn't like the vibrancy effect, you can turn it off in preferences. I have (and my air battery lasts about 10% longer since I did as well).
