Well, I think the best names for the 'lost feature' are: "transparent with
windows ignored" or "transparent, background only".
I think the average user can handle that, if you compare it to positioning of
backgrounds in the 'desktop settings', There you have:
Scaled and cropped, scaled, scaled keep proportions, centered, titled and
centered titled. That's 6 different options with similar names (also the
average user never opens a konsole to start with).

It seems to me it mainly hangs on the question - would someone that has the
knowledge put the time to implement this?
