I just posted on this list about wanting better animation options for
Gnome-Shell and then you come along wanting to write something. I will
be first in line installing the results of your efforts! I really like
the animations in Cinnamon and even better ElementaryOS. If effects like
that could be reproduced it would be great!

Sorry, I am not a developer so I can't contribute with code.
