Your best option with VRT would be to use a NoData value instead if you can.

You mean setting a nodata value when building the COGs (ie gdal_translate -a_nodata 0 -of COG dataset.vrt dataset.tif) instead of the alpha/mask band, and then using this nodata value as -srcnodata 0 parameter to gdalbuildvrt ?

So i tried this nodata method, it sort of works, ie i can stack the COGs on top of each other via the VRT, and they're blended together at display time.. unless (and i already hit that in the past) on the borders of the COG one can see ugly artifacts of the JPEG compression going 'outside' the original area:

to workaround this in the past, i had built a contraption/script that 'worked' but wasnt fully satisfying: - creating a geojson with a cutline from the tileindex (ogr2ogr -dialect SQLITE -f GeoJSON -sql "SELECT buffer(GUnion(GEOMETRY), -12, 1) from tileindex)
- warping the vrt with the cutline via gdalwarp
- compressing the result via gdal_translate (not COG yet, but TIFF with JPEG/YCBCR)
- and then adding overviews separately via gdaladdo

i'm unsure this method is still the way to go to eradicate artifacts on the borders of image, as i had sometimes artifacts *in the overviews* which were also JPEG-compressed.
