Thinking again on MacOS, I saw that the console can be transparent to 
what is directly behind it, not just the background. Probably this is 
already possible just with the Qt API, and that Konsole is not taking 
direct use of it; I'm no GUI programmer, so I don't really know.

Btw, with menu transparencies on, whenever I slide the "File" menus (or 
within the KMenu), the previous menu appears faded in the transparent 
pane behind the current pulled down menu (only with K programs, of 
course). For example, in Konsole, pull down the "Bookmarks" menu, slide 
right to the "Windows" menu. Now you should see the faded remains of 
letters from the "Bookmarks" menu. I turned tansparencies off due to 
this. The fact that it was a bit slower didn't bother me a bit (PIII-500).

This is just my humble opinion of bug correction priorities. Get it 
right, then get it faster. This has been the evolution of MacOS X.
