No I mean prelight effects. I believe someone has already made a patch 
for this, but it is already quite old and was originally meant to make 
gtk apps look more consistent on Windows machines. However I think it 
would make the overall look and feel of the Gnome desktop more elegant 
too. It can be found at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340203.
