I believe the more troublesome powers do have a "No FX" option.

Even if that's true, it would be nice to have it as a graphics option for team mates who don't realize/don't care their customization is intrusive, like when some one has a big purple or green dispersion bubble.

i think hes talking for certain color combinations like dark blue/dark blue ice powers are near invisible even when you want to see them
I'd want to see a translucency slider for completely the opposite reason - almost any power you give a Dark secondary colour to in both colour slots ends up almost fully transparent against most backgrounds. I wanted a deep blue Energy Blast, and I tried giving it a Bright blue theme, only a Bright primary colour is just as transparent. It ends up looking like I'm shooting out blue cellophane. The only way to make a power solid is to go Bright white or Dark black. Anything else WILL be highly transparent against a variety of backgrounds.
Being able to make my powers both the colour I want AND the transparency I want would be ideal.

Have already tried that and it's limited to proximity and (I think) only affects other players powers to your vision.|

If it's your power, then you're stuck with the visibility issues that some sets bring; like Storms, Fire Control and other sets that use a lot of duration/toggle AoEs. Even some of the Melee set armors can be a bit much.

...for Power Customization; some powers kill visibility (for self and others) no matter what colors you decide to use.
A transparency slider would allow players to keep their choice of colors while keeping distractions and annoyances down to a minimum.
Either allowing for this at the Tailor Screen as part of Power Customization or under the Menu > Options > Graphics; as an FX slider.
