Shadow effect and window transpaency

[Cliff Resnick <cresny gmail com>]

I like to use a semi-transparent terminal, but I've noticed that only the left-most pixels in gnome-terminal are transparent in gnome-shell, the rest of the window apparently "blocked" by the shadow effect used on all windows, as if some sort of clipping the shadow in the window region is missing. is there any plan to address this? I've done a bit of searching but have come up empty.
