How to use CSS (and JavaScript?) to create a blurred, “frosted” background?

Is it possible to code a div to enable it to blur whatever image is under it?
something like this:
Could this be done somehow with -webkit
maybe?
Not with CSS on its own, but you can pull a similar effect off with Canvas and the StackBlurforCanvas library. See this
UPDATE: Looks like backdrop-filter
was recently introduced to Webkit nightly, so eventually we'll be able to do this with CSS only. Yay!
Unfortunately this can't be done purely using CSS. Although webkit-filter supports blur, it doesn't support blurring anything other than the element that it applies to.
There is a more hacky way to do this, described here - http://css-tricks.com/blurry-background-effect/
