Interesting but perhaps not that surprising it's a little odd in transparent 
mode. Window is the most likely wmode for a flex application. I assume it works 
fin  in that mode on all browsers you tested?

I've not tried but I would assume you listen on the textinput field. Perhaps 
TLF is getting in the way?

From a quick look on OSX:
Safari 5.1-  can set mode (and it works) in both opaque and transparent
Firefox 9 - can set mode (and it works) in both opaque and transparent
Chrome 17- can set mode (and it works) in both opaque and transparent

You might also want to look at the table here re Window/Linux/OSX IME support.
