Feature request: pseudo-transparency #2

It would be nice if there was a pseudo-transparency option for this console similar to what has been done to some xterms, putty branches, etc. in the past. By pseudo-transparency, I mean a way in which the text in the console remains completely opaque, but the background has a settable level of transparency. The way windows does alpha transparency isn't that 'real work' friendly because it makes the entire window including the text, window decoration, etc. transparent and text becomes difficult to read.
