That does work, but only because Compiz isn't being used in the wine desktop.

Technically, I think, Wine is acting the same way that Windows would at the
moment - reading what's under the window and then using that to calculate the
transparency. BUT, I think that with Compiz running, when WINE tries to read
the background, you just get garbage because Compiz doesn't act like Metacity
does (it uses OpenGL and treats the window contents as textures)...
