the whole problem is I need to have "transparent widgets" ones that are
"drawn by the parent completely"

actually I'm redoing the whole thing and doing this,

instead of making tiles optional they will be "required" ... the tiles are
square, so I can make them a window owning widget ... and do alpha channel
drawing of the icon onto the tile ... this will get rid of that problem
sacrificing the ability of putting icons directly on the panel with alpha
channel support ... hmm .. well ... who cares ... making them windowfull
widgets will make the code simpler and cleaner anyhow ...
