Is it possible to have aero Glass transparency when RDPing to a WindowsBlinds desktop?

Knock on wood, I'm very happy with the performance and stability I get with the latest WindowsBlinds 7.2 (build 297) under Windows 7 64bit.

Im RDPing from my work machine (Vista32 Enterprise) to my home machine (with WindowsBlinds on it).

 

Is there a way to see transparencies in the RDP session?  Windows blinds unfortunately converts my black Windows taskbar into an ugly solid light grey color.  In older versions of WB 6.x, at least the taskbar was black in the RDP session.

Anyway, I am hoping for a way to see a closer representation of what my stardock desktop looks like through the RDP session.  Or, at least a way for the black taskbar to look black via the RDP session.

I currently have transparencies/glass "forced" enabled at work using:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DWM]
"EnableMachineCheck"=dword:00000000
"Blur"=dword:00000000
"Animations"=dword:00000000

Thanks for any help you can offer,

M
