I tried to get this to work, but I could not easily. It is easy to use 
masks to get the splash screen a different shape, but it is still 
hard-edged, with a white background. There does not seem to be a way to 
apply a full 8-bit mask to the widget, just a 1-bit bitmap. This would 
presumably need compositing of some sort, which is in Qt, but I could not 
quickly find a way to set transparency other that for the whole widget.
