2. activate multiple widgets where you expect blurred background

OBSERVED RESULT
- works shortly, but then often no blurred background but transparent window appears

EXPECTED RESULT
always blur not transparent

Fix blur/contrast region not getting updated

There is a misunderstanding of current blur protocol in the previous fix.
The update{Blur/Contrast}Region is only triggered by setting a new blur
object, which essentially ignore update the future update of blur
region.

This tries to restore the old behavior, by always creating a new blur
object, but always make sure we destroy them when being replaced.
