I hope it is just a WIP.
I guess it's supposed to replicate what a camera shot would look like, and seems to do a good job at that (see below). Oleg has explained previously that shutter speed etc. will be factored in for propeller or tracer appearance when taking screenshots, and that would mean the blur is calculated automatically (propably using the same radial blur algorithm). I'm pretty sure though that this will be optional anyway.

Shouldn't make much of a difference when playing, in most screens we've seen a "correct" highly transparent spinner disk that is completely blurred as it should be.
