Is this ever going to be possible ?
Obviously it CAN be done.

Stardock will be closed for the week starting on Monday, June 29th and we will be returning on Monday, July 6th. We will be monitoring support tickets and forums during this time but expect delays in responses during this time.

I believe that was done using an application that hacks system files Andy, which is really not desirable and unsafe. Windowblinds was made to not hack system files if I remember correctly.
I am thinking a "Side program" like Start 10 maybe could circumvent that problem...
"Special" backgrounds could then be optional...
Do you mean the translucent explorer backgrounds?
If so that remains a feature of Windowblinds on Windows 7 as I recall. Later versions of Windows had changes which made this feature problematic.
Don't you think "Addon/plugin" apps similar to Start 10 could be created for "extra" features to Windowblinds... such as Transparency/lucency in different areas and Skinned Popups all over Explorer etc...?
If a feature has been removed from Windowblinds it is for a good reason. If it were simple to fix it would still be in Windowblinds.
