I have created a set of image mosaics in GeoServer 1.7.7
(using the GDAL method). The resulting layers are superimposed
for viweing at different scales. In the WMS call, the layers
are ordered with the most general at the bottom and the most
detailed on top.

Generally this works OK after I have set OutputTransparentColor
and InputTransparentColor for the "upper" layers (since these
do not cover the entire map extent, in general each layer covers
less area than the next below).

But, I run into problems with an intermediate layer where
there is no data. If the GetMap request is for an extent where
the intermediate layer GEM:SjokortSkar has data for at least
a part, everything works fine. As soon as I issue a GetMap for
and area where this layer has no data, I get a black image for
GEM:SjokortSkar.

Using Format=application/openlayers I can click the map and
get some feature info. When there is partial cover for this
layer I get

PALETTE_INDEX 0.0

for the area where there is data and

GRAY_INDEX 0.0
UNDEFINED 255.0

where there is no data. On a map image where there is no
data for this layer I get

GRAY_INDEX 0.0
UNDEFINED 255.0

So, I guess the question is, how do I make GRAY_INDEX 0
transparent alongside PALETTE_INDEX 0?
