Feature Request: PicLayer: Specify Opacity and Alpha channel/color — at Version 3

Description (last modified by )
It would be useful to mark an alpha channel / transparent color in images being referenced in PicLayer.
I'm going through some hand-drawn fire escape maps and have to layer scans on top of each other. It would be useful to have a color picker to identify a transparent color so that overlapping layers can be viewed simultaneously.
The current behavior is for each layer to be opaque to the one below it.

this functionality is already in josm core - you can set opacity of the layer in layers list.



As a workaround until this is implemented, one can use ImageMagick :
convert file1.png -alpha set -channel RGBA -fill none -opaque black file2.png
