FYI - GTK does too (since at least 2.4, I believe), at least on the
GtkColorSelection widget.  See:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkColorSelection.html#gtk-color-selection-set-has-opacity-control

I don't see an obvious wrapper method on the GtkColorSelectionDialog
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkColorSelectionDialog.html
but I'm assuming the underlying widget can be accessed and configured...

FWIW, I too look forward for some WX way for users to pick their alpha
values along with their colour values (without me having to write my
own widgets/dialogs, I mean...)

Anyways, keep up all the good work!
