It's up to the toolkit you use to allow you to render to a texture
and then up to you to create a GL texture out of it. AFAIK this
is still WIP in GTK or in QT.

If you are referring to what compiz or others compositor achieve
then it's a whole different issue and this feature is only given
to the window manager.
