Nav float window default winblend=10 hinders readability #486

Hi! I'm coming to love Aerial, and have a small nit; the floating window transparency in the nav windows hinders usability, though it sure looks cool [1].

Can / should I change this at the Aerial config somehow, or it this some nvim default "bleeding through"? I suspect the latter, since I don't see a config option for it, but thought I'd ask here first...

UPDATE: I can set winblend = 0 to fix it; maybe 10 (the default according to the help file) is too high a number for a "reasonable default"?

opts = {
    nav = {             
        win_opts = {    
           winblend = 0
        },
    },               
},

[1] Window transparency sure looks slick in screenshots, and is technically impressive especially in a TUI... but when was the last time you saw a magazine or book with transparent pages?
