I have a computer friend who thinks the same way.<br>I remember how Canonical's Unity (despite its flaws) had a feature (maybe it was just part of <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/compiz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>compiz</span></a> (oh compiz! I forgot! So much fun!)?) where the titlebar would turn into a menubar when you hovered over it (IIRC). Unity was so pretty. If only it wasn't so buggy. (It was so bad it was the reason I [temporarily] left Linux as a kid.)</p><p>(I wish parentheses worked in spoken language like they do in text lol)</p>

It's how we did transparent windows back in 2000 a few years before compositors like <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/compiz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Compiz</span></a>. It's "fake" transparency because as soon as there was another window underneath the terminal window, the illusion melted away.</em></p>
