Describe the solution you'd like

Just like the description, I'd like to have the text glow like what Windows 7 did:
RJ8za

Your reason (tell us why we need it)

Just simply that will provide much better visibility for the text if the background has the same colour as the text

Describe alternatives you've considered

And it should be wonderfull if we could modify the titlebar heaviler! I like centered titlebar of Windows 8 and have not found any workaround for this hehe
Additional context
Thank you in advance for this wonderful app, such a gem for Aeroglass lover like me since the drop of glass8.eu

This does bring up an interesting point; DWMBlurGlass does a "per-letter" glow, where the shape of the glow is affected by the shape of the letters. Windows 7 does not do this, and instead uses a nine-slice image (TEXTGLOW part in DWMWindow UXTheme class) behind the text that is not affected by the shape of the text.

DWMBlurGlass has text glow support depending on your theme.
