Windows Aero areas in native C # applications

Question

I'm curious that many of the newer applications, I think most of which are built into WPF, have really cool Windows Aero Glass interfaces.

For example, Seesmic or the upcoming Firefox 3.7 _{(source: crenk.com )}

Searching the Internet most often looks like you need a hack to figure it out. But seriously: I don’t think that large teams of software developers use hacks to deploy their huge used products.

So my question is: Windows Aero Glass Areas - How to do it?

Is this only possible with hacking?
