Yes, I have a transparency related fix as well, but it is a bit more involved and bulia had some issues with it.

Yes, sorry I dropped the ball here. We agreed to do a function which gives the visible opacity of an object, right? Please keep reminding me so I don't forget about it again :)

For the rest, transparency use is as limited as the regular colours and many of the limitations are shared with the postscript exporter that I based the pdf exporter on (i don't know enough about inkscape or pdf internals to handle it). For instance, there are no gradients for strokes, and there are no elliptic or excentric gradients for fills.

Elliptic gradients with transparency did work for me on fill.
