As I have stated before I have absolutely no problem with the general
concept.  Calvin, have you tried switching your TDE session to use kwin? 
Does it work well?  Any problems to report or did all go well?

I absolutely refuse to yank a critical part of TDE until I know its
replacement works not just as well as the original, but better.
