Does Compiz treat the desktop as a "window" for visual effects; for opacity and such?

Asked by Green Dragon

Binary package hint: compiz

Does Compiz treat the desktop as a "window" for visual effects; for opacity and such? I want to make my computer have a (close to) black backgroud with just the window I have open lighten up (and the other windows just opacitified in the background). I tried a few things in Compiz - is this possible?
