UI, Glass - Maximized, Transparency Behavior

A

Adahn

Instead of blacking out the Taskbar and title bar when a window is
maximized, it'd be much more pleasant to just make them 100% opaque while
retaining the user-specified color tint and the background of "glass" beams.

(like it is when you max up the Intensity slider in the Color Scheme
personalization)

To be honest, I'd rather they stay transparent according to the
Intensity setting no matter what the state of the window.

I would consider some things to be buggy regarding this, if I maximize a
screen on my second monitor, I lose the glass on the side bar and the
taskbar.

Yes, the black borders are simply ugly. I don't see how dirty black goes
with clean white...
