Created attachment 58340 [details] Dragged window on Ubuntu with JDK 5.
IMHO the dragged window does not look nice. See attachment.
I agree with Lukas. Imagine, that you have two monitors and you want to have some useful informations on second one (e.g. output window). In current state, everything on the second monitor will be transparent in a few moments and you can't do anything about it. So it seems to be quite logical to have such option and thus have the possibility to turn the transparency off or set the timer.
