Issue
Can muffin blur the translucent background in select apps? For example in alacritty. I did not find a better place to ask the question, because mutter has long supported blur, and as far as I know, muffin regularly merges with mutter.

Start by reviewing Muffin's compositor behavior and its relationship to Mutter's blur support, then determine how application-specific translucent backgrounds are identified. Done should be a decided implementation path or documented reason the requested blur cannot be supported.
