Very impressive.

I have some issues with it, though.

- I really hate to leave anything older than W2K behind.  You might not
  care, but I do.

- I tested it, and it gave a constant flicker, at least in the status bar.
  Does not seem to be that fleshed out.

That's typical for impressive windows hackery...
Switching the transparency completely (frame and background in tabs) off
seem to help with the flicker. At least it does not flicker much for w2k here.
