Bug Description
Using the desktopcover plugin on a composited desktop can lead to undesired behaviour. I for myself did specify that inactive windows should not be fully opaque, but this also includes the desktop cover window. Thus, the cover art is harder to see.
My proposal is to set the splashscreen hint for the desktopcover window which in turn would tell the window manager to ignore this window regarding all kind of interaction (as it currently is forced to) and compositing settings. I tried it and it works just fine for me.
Any objections?

Do you have a patch I can give a try? I have a few machines I can test it on, some running compiz, some not.
