Sure YMMV, the filters linked to the GraphicExportFilter.idl calls [1] used in
the macro extension could use some work.

For now the extension's BMP, TIFF, and JPEG do look to parse the bg
transparency color and apply it as a bg color, though they drop any alpha
channel for the bitmap. While PNG munges the bg color and drops transparency
(though it should support it that I can tell). And GIF does write out
transparency but incorrectly. 

So if you just need the colored bitmap image, export to one of the three that
include image "translucence" then use an external program to convert the
rasters. E.g. ImageMagick's convert to some other format. But yes, alpha
channel transparency is not currently well supported in the API.

But the extension provides what OP asks, though with limitations. And a native
export dialog (to include alpha channel transparency and improved SVG handling)
still is needed.
