Wayland blur/other effect reigons?

[nerdopolis]

Hi.

I was wondering, how are you planning to allow Wayland applications put blur 
on the screen?

Will it be specified by the app as a reigion for the compistor to handle, or 
will the effect be handled by the clients? (someone suggested that the effects 
could be client side)

There might also be other effects that an app might want, like invert, 
magnify, or reflect...

If its done by the clients, that would mean they will have to be constantly 
grabbing the piximaps or whatever, right?
