Bug description

In stacks, like here, blur is used to dim the main content:

I can totally see why you might want to dim the left part a bit to move focus to the stack and to convey to users what's happening to the interface. In previous versions this was done using a transparent dark layer.

In practice, during content editing, I've found the heavy blur makes it impossible to reference anything from the main page that I might need, like field handles.

And therefore you could even argue a big win usability wise for using a stack (to keep context) is eliminated by using that very blur.
