This is already quite possible.  Not only can you set some theme 
elements to be semitransparent, you can also make them modify only a 
particular one of h, s, l, r, g, b.  The problem is that you'll need to 
edit the theme plist directly instead of using the interface.  Scan back 
through the release notes to figure out how to do this.  AFAIK no themes 
ever really did anything like this though.

Infin, think we can get those release notes you've compiled into the 
repository, or somewhere else online?
