This thread prompted me to try it myself as well, as I enjoy a slight
bit of translucency to my editing/shell workspaces. And indeed, the
translucency of non-background elements is undesirable.
Are there any plans to add support for alpha channel values in the color
specifications? It should be possible with GTK+ (the XFCE terminal
emulator uses true translucency for the background on composited
displays).
