E16 allows that very well, Raster may be despising FakeTransparency a lot, but 
it was a nice trick back then & I use it everyday.

A Terminal as background, in e16:

E16 does offer individual settings. Above is a gnome-terminal set  
as "below", "borderless", and with no shadows; in gnome-terminal settings 
it's "hide toolbar", no scroll arrows (but you can scroll) & transparent 
background.  It uses the E remember feature after the proper name of the 
settings in gnome-terminal settings, and only take "title" as target argument 
(it will be the saved settings' title). From there, it will remember whatever 
you see fit: location, size & such. Then there is a script to fire it up, 
symlinked in ~/.e16/Start folder.

And Bob's my uncle!
Sorry if I made a show of myself: I really love this feature.
