Anyone aware of a way to customize the appearance of the screen during fast user switching? I'd like to disable the background blur to make it look more like it did in Mavericks.

Best Answer
Yes, you can change the blurred background image on the login screen in Yosemite.
In root /Library/Caches (make sure you're not in the user ~/Library) you will find a file called: com.apple.desktop.admin.png. This is the blurred image that was created when you set your Desktop wallpaper.
Replace this file with any image you would like on your login page. Make sure to keep the permissions the same as the original file.
