Interesting. Is this the same as "Alpha compositing"?
One of the points in the slashdot post about "why Apple doesn't use X.Org" is:
5) Add broad alpha channel support and Porter-Duff compositing, both for drawing in a window and for interactions between windows.
I think this is a very interesting discussion. So, am I right in thinking that X.Org does has alpha channel support using the composite but not without it?
I googled a bit and found a blog post about ARGB support for Qt:

not sure if this is with composite on or off...
