There definitely was some method of getting unfocused windows to be transparent by swizzling the composite config dialog, using the old default theme, I was using it for a long time. Exactly how that worked, via a colour class that just happened to be included in some style, or something else, it used to be there. Now it's gone. That's the answer to my original question... Transparent unfocused windows are not working any more. Yes, they can be made to work if the theme supports it, but the current default theme no longer supports it, so it don't work out of the box. It got removed. To get it to work again, you'll need a different theme. Now that I have my answer, I can relax, and hope it gets added to the default theme at some point in the future.
