- Avoids recreating the acrylic controller when the effective backdrop parameters have not changed. - Reuses the transparent backdrop instead of reassigning it during dock refreshes. - Cleans up backdrop controllers only when switching backdrop modes or disposing the window. - Removes obsolete dock-specific backdrop helper logic now handled directly in DockWindow.
