  Well, in this case, "privacy" is not really strong argument for disabling it. If you show a part of your desktop, be ready to show the rest.
  
  I think the biggest problem with the translucency effect is that it makes windows translucent under wrong conditions. Making inactive windows translucent. Sure, makes sense*. But making moving windows translucent, don't think so.

  * Yet, it has one problem: if user has a bunch of inactive windows, background will be messed.
