Does this help?:

Unfortunately no, it does cause the text back to opaque but the transparency of the background under the text also disappears.
Seems that opacity is "still in development" so I've set the opacity to 0.8 and even though the text is a bit "dull" the visual effect that I'm after is there.
Cheers
