Public bug reported:

When the left edge launcher is revealed over an app or a scope other
than the apps scope, the app should darken smoothly and proportionately
to the revealing movement of the launcher.

At the moment, the screen darkens after the launcher is fully committed.

Instead the degree of darkening of the screen should be correlated to
the extent of the launcher reveal. As the launcher is hinted, the screen
should darken a little, and as it is revealed the rest of the darkening
should happen, till the commit at which point the app / screen is at the
final level of darkening.

If the left edge swipe continues then we expect to reveal the app scope,
which would be undimmed and hence contrast strongly with the app (or
other scope) that was visible.

This will serve to strengthen the hint / reveal of the launcher, and
also to highlight the emergence of the app scope. It also matches the
immediate dimming of the screen during a right-edge swipe.
