I like the innovative nature of the idea.

but,

I am not sure about how general purpose this idea is.

- I would like to see some more thinking on how this influences the
   simplest case: importing an image without any transparency.
   how would that look like without introducing complication.
   simple things (in users' eyes) have to remain simple in the UI.

- I would like to see some more thinking on how this is related to
   the background color in the color chooser. coupled/decoupled?
