Thanks Geoff.  One interesting use of this would be for drag and drop.  
You could display a windowshaped window that is partially transparent 
when the user clicks on something that can be dragged.  This would be 
similar to what the finder and Windows Explorer do.

One request I received was to be able to apply a grayscale (8 bit) 
image to a stack window for transparency (Rev supports 1 bit).  This 
would make the effect I describe above even cleaner looking.
