I would like to have optional shadowed text in the konsole like Eterm does. I don't want a fuzzy shadow, but a sharp little shadow, e.g. the same text in black, moved by 1 pixel to the right and down.

Why?

This would make transparent konsole windows much easier to read. I guess to see, how well this works, you might have to look at Eterm. For a quick glance see the first screenshot on http://www.eterm.org/ss.php. The shadow is almost not visible but makes the text much more readble on the background.
