The GIF provider did not decode it with alpha set to 0xff, should work now.

Currently the only way to update the background image is to do a flip
on it, the surface has to be created with DSCAPS_FLIPPING. It's a double

XCF would be nice, but RenderTo would have the effect of flattening the image.
How do our GIMP hackers think about it?
