Screenshot showing current filled polygon drawing

DRAW: When drawing a polygon with fill, the fill should be partly transparent
whilst drawing

Steps to reproduce

1. Open LibreOffice Draw
2. Draw a number of objects in the middle of the page (can overlap)
3. Go to the "Curve" button on the drawing toolbar and select "Polygon, filled"
4. Now draw a filled polygon over the top of the objects drawn earlier.

Current Behaviour

As the polygon is drawn, the fill obscures the objects underneath making it
difficult to see exacly where to place the next point (if you are trying to be
accurate).

Desired bahaviour

As you draw the polygon the fill should be partly transparent to let you see
anything underneath and therefore allow you to see where the next point should
be placed. Once the polygon is complete, the fill would have no transparency by
default.

I have attached two screenshots to illustrate the above scenario. Whilst this
is not a critical feature, as a LibreOffice Draw user I have run into this
situation a few times and the transparency during the polygon drawing process
would make like easier.

There should probably be some advice from the UX team on this.
