Daniel, lock your phone. Turn it back on and you see the greeter. Swipe from the right, and you see the dash underneath as you swipe.

Now imagine that the greeter and the dash are two separate processes, run by two separate users. That's the case I'm trying to support. And that's the case that regresses being able to see the dash underneath the greeter right now.

But I'm actually thinking it's easier to go down the screenshot route with these backgrounds rather than actual opacity. That way we wouldn't regress the feature if the user can't be logged in (encrypted home or multi-user scenarios).

So hold on a sec while I experiment with that...
