✨ Overview
Add support for visual effects that are applied to an entire rendered page rather than to individual modules.
Page-level effects belong to the Preview/Rendering model and should be applied after the document's modules have been laid out.
🎯 Goals
- Define a page-level effect model.
- Allow a page to contain zero or more effects.
- Apply effects independently from module rendering.
- Ensure effects are reflected consistently in the preview and PDF output.
- Keep page effects separate from module features.

📦 Requirements
A page effect should:
Belong to the page/preview representation.
Not be represented as a document module.
Not alter the semantic module hierarchy.
Be serializable where required.
Be applied consistently by the preview and document rendering engines.
🌱 Future Direction
The system should allow additional page-level effects to be introduced without modifying the module model.
Potential effects include:
Hand-scribbling
Paper textures
Page shadows
Decorative borders
Background patterns
Watermarks
Visual distortions
