I didn't think it was quite that obvious...  I'll admit, i didn't think it 
likely, but I thought it plausible that assigning an alpha value to the color 
of the background might affect the rest of the background too.

But what I found was happening was that assigning a rgba color value to the 
background made the background image go away completely - which is broken 
behavior in anyone's book.  Thankfully that behavior only manifests itself in 
the developer console.

An actual page load does work exactly like you say, and as I expected.
