What do you mean?
If parts of your model are not transparent they should not render transparent?
Right?

It did for me the other way round. I never saw something sensible with 
osgdepthpeeling. But loading a model with transparent triangles renders fine 
with osgoit. At least the ones that I usually tried.
Only if your model contains protected state attributes that need to be 
overwritten this can hurt. Especially the blend mode need to be overruled by 
the viewer code.

For the zurich paper, I also read that. IIRC the loaded model needs to have 
all the state replaced by the viewer codes for multiple render targets which 
makes all the colors and textures and whatnot just disappear or requires a lot 
work to translate that.
That simpler algorithm does not need any cooperation from the model except the 
blend state must not be protected.

So it's about to view a model just like it would look like with osgviewer but 
with correct(er) transparency.
