I tried this with 5.02 on XP just before posting to make sure I wasn't
misremembering something. I set a background pattern for the card,
then set a background pattern for the tab button. And set the blending
level down to 10 so I could see the psychedelic effect when I moved
the control around.

When you say you toggled the opaque control, you mean with the message
box, right? We're talking about the same control? Because there's no
opaque control for tab buttons on the property editor.
