Hmm, I thought I saw kstep was enabled (else I wouldn't have said 
anything), but yes, if it is buggy anyway, certainly lets disable it 
until it can be ported and fixed. I prefer that mostly-working decos 
don't disappear in beta3 (and come back next tag, of course), but I'm 
not as worried about ones that are not in good shape anyway.

Confirmed... thanks! Hmm, might want to borrow that gradientFill 
function if you're doing other windecos (I may borrow it, if i work on 
any) :-). Btw, blitz has an intensity() if you need it, other things 
that might work are e.g. check out the interesting composition modes in 
QPainter (e.g. overlay, screen, hard/soft light, etc).
