I've found this great BlurMate plugin today for TM2.
https://github.com/cliffrowley/blurmate
It works great, I just wonder since it's just a few lines of code, why background blurring is not included in TM2 already?
I always loved the blur in Terminal and thought that TM2 is not capable of it. Found the plugin just by accident.
Some way to set the blur using "defaults" for example would be nice.
Well, I'm not confident enough in my Objective-C skills.
And I thought maybe there's a reason why blur is not supported. :)
I'll contact the plugin author though. Hopefully he'll come up with a pull request.

Why ask instead of sending a pull request, it’s just a few lines of code ;)

Your email was the first I ever heard about blurred backgrounds.
A very quick look at the plug-in code does make it look like it isn’t exactly API we should rely on, so maybe it’s best to keep it as a plug-in, but I’ll review more thoroughly if a PR is opened adding this.
Terminal themes had support for blurred backgrounds since I don't know when. :)
I was hoping that one day TM will also support that and now having Yosemite with all the fancy blurs coming along I think it's the best time to actually add support for blur. :)
Btw, just got an answer from the plugin author: "I hadn’t previously considered contributing the code to TextMate proper - but now you mention it I’m not sure why! I'll take a look at integrating the code and sending a pull request when I get a chance."
