In unity-2d, you’d need to add a GConf preference under
/desktop/unity-2d/launcher/.

If that matches the visual result in Unity, then that’s an elegant and

This is implemented by the Launcher::IconBackgroundIntensity(…) method
in src/Launcher.cpp
(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/trunk/view/head:/src/Launcher.cpp).

Can someone from the design team comment on this?
