panel transparency weirdness

Hey Jasper (again),

While I'm thinking about the panel...

I was getting a bit annoyed at how sometimes some portions of the panel
get 'stuck' at weird transparencies, or don't get redrawn properly.
Yeah, I know, composite is interacting with xembed strangely.

But I played around with it, and I discovered a possible workaround,
though it's not really that nice.  It seems like the screwed-up-ness
only occurs (for me, anyway) if the panel changes size while it's
partially transparent.  If it changes size while it's opaque, nothing
bad happens.  I've mainly checked this by hovering the mouse over the
panel while it changes size (like while it's initially loading and
populating the panel with plugins), and it seems to be ok that way.

Soooo...  a possible silly workaround would be to temporarily disable
the transparency whenever the panel changes size.  Can you perhaps hook
into the size-allocate signal or something for that?
