    I think it would be cool, it would add a cartoon effect ;)
    But, do you think it is an UI?

    One more thing, those clouds are like Lens Flares, they follow the camera rotation

    no

    UI is for the user interaction stuff... you probably could hack something together with that, but there are much better ways to do it
