The only thing you could do is find some way to render your widgets to
a pixmap, then set the pixmap as the backing pixmap of the window
before you show the window on the screen. Owen used to have a hack to
render widgets to a pixmap, perhaps posted to gtk-devel-list. The hack
was to do transparent or fade-in menus so you'd look for that in the
subject line.
