What happens if you try to call a API that does not exist?  Does Win32::API 
trap the error or do you get an exception?  In any event, you could have a 
config page/menu/window with this setting disabled(non updateable) and turned 
off by default, then verify the OS version is x or higher (using 
Win32::GetOSVersion() or whatever) and enabling the control....  

Anyway, even if it only works on certain OS's, it still a cool feature for 
those OS's that support.   As Johan says, don't count on a gimmick to define 
the app, where if it does not work, the app doesn't work...
