i'm really on the fence on where to put this and how to call it.
Becasue if we put other stuff like that like the taskbar thumbnails and the 
glow effect they wouldn't have much to do with animation, and i'm kinda 
wondering if plasma is the right namespace/lib for that, hmm..
anyways next patch is a tiny WindowEffect namespace (or maybe WindowUtils? so 
it mnatches with PaintUtils)
