In your posting to comp.sys.mac, you mention having difficulty "seeing"
the trashcan under Multifinder with lots of windows open.  You should
acquire either InvisiWin FKEY or WindowShade, both of which have been
posted to SUMEX archives relatively recently and may also be available
from bulletin boards, Bix, Compuserve, Genie, etc. 

InvisiWin is an FKEY that makes the active window of the current
application "transparent" so you can see and touch what is underneath
it.  For example, suppose the active window overlaps the icon for a
mounted floppy.  cmd-shift-7 makes the window transparent, so that all
you see is the title bar and the outline, and you can then click on the
now visible mounted icon.  cmd-shift-7 a second time restores
visibility.  InvisiWin has worked well for me.  It handles all sorts of
windows, including ones with rounded corners such as is used by
calculator DA. 

Windowshade is similar in purpose, but is a CDEV/INIT.  You can
configure it so that visibility is toggled (as with InvisiWin) by
clicking on the title bar with/without modifier keys being depressed. 
Windowshade is a bit different in that it leaves only the title bar
visible and can't deal with round cornered windows.  I briefly tried
Windowshade and found that it worked OK.  But, since I already had
enough INITs, I decided that I preferred to use an FKEY. 

Either of these programs (both freeware) should do what you want.
