Steps of reproduction
- Start a window gravitating to some corner with override redirect set with transparent background
- Add override_redirect = true to background-blur-exclude
Note: I did this using zoom. All I did was start a zoom meeting and it shows a reminder on the corner. This window has the override redirect property set. Also, it has rounded corners along with a transparent border.
Expected behavior
Adding override_redirect = true to background-blur-exclude property should remove blur from such windows and the behaviour for remaining windows should be the same.
Current Behavior
This removes background blur from all windows (irrespective of override redirect state)
EDIT: I tried this with exclude-shadow as well. Seems like it is not being detected after all. tryone144's comment makes sense.
