My parents have some windows like that. They're basically opaque... I mean, SOME light gets through, but it's not much and you can barely see any shadows...

So if used for a bathroom door for guest bathroom, it wouldn't be awkward?
Yes, you can see shadows through them. If someone is in the bathroom, they will have light behind them and they are back-lighted, so you can see the silhouette.
If it is a master bath and nobody is going to be there except for a spouse, it should be OK. It would feel very awkward for guests in any other bathroom.
Those are really for places like the office, sunporch, pantry, laundry room...

Yeah, I would not really care personally, but I can imagine some people would, so gest bath might not be a great idea unless it was pretty large and they would be away from it.
I will say that a few years back I was working with a guy doing a nightclub and the bathrooms were going to be back to back (specifically the sink areas backed up to each other) and he wanted to have the wall between them to be a glass wall like that, with only a big strip in the middle being opaque. He wanted the counter to appear continuous with just the glass separating the mens and womens rooms. So, under his idea, you could see the legs and hands of the people next door but not really the face. Unfortunately, he had lots of other super expensive ideas and could not make the deal work, so we never got to build it.
Your guests would not appreciate the doors like this, when they used the bathroom. It does away with the feeling of privacy.
