The reality is that the function of transparent windows is being split;
the clipping function of transparent windows is much better dealt with
using the full region support in V11; the input discrimination and cursor
control by InputOnly windows.  The overloaded semantics of transparent
windows were far from ideal.  We were unable to find any examples of
an application which used both semantic cases at the same time; they were
either being used as poor man's regions or as cursor control/input
functions.
