Yes...  the colour you're aiming for here in the final image is probably
unrelated to what your Emacs frame looks like, so perhaps using the
frame background is even worse than just defaulting to black.

Jean suggested defaulting to transparent, but I don't think that's what
people would want here, either.

Now done.

I went with `image-cut' here -- perhaps we'll implement pasting later,
if somebody finds that useful.
