As described in the original feature request, the background behind the rendered webpage may now be made transparent with these changes by customizing a few other settings as well.
The new option defaults back to the previous behaviour of enforcing opacity to fully opaque on all colors and as such should not cause problems for anyone who does not explicitly set "browser.display.allow_transparent_background" to "true" in about:config.
For transparency to actually work browser.display.background_color or browser.display.background_color.dark (depending on the active theme) must also be made transparent in about:config. Similarly, a userChrome.css is necessary to make the tab's background transparent ( :root { --tabpanel-background-color: #00000063 !important; } ). With these changes the browser can be made transparent on pages that are also fully transparent.
Pages may not be transparent by default, but extensions (such as Dark Reader) may be used to enforce transparent background colors on all pages.
As such this patch implements all necessary changes to to allow users to make firefox transparent without having to patch and recompile it.
