The acrylic blur has some graphical issues on old devices. It looks very noisy.

So there should be an option to select blur type to use in Windows. Like "Gaussian blur", "lens blur", "windows 7 style blur" and an option to choose the intensity of blur.

I hope you will listen to thousands of people requesting this.
