Hi,
first of all I'm sorry for not reading the original posting carefully
(asking for a bitmap replacement for the mash only). Could have saved
me from writing a very stupid posting.

The idea is really cool. Unfortunately we need transparency support
for bitmaps for proper occlurency. However, yes, transparency is now
available in svn!
As we now have that, the right thing (tm) to do is to add a writer
option mashasbitmap, as I did as well. By that it all comes down to
setting the meshasbitmap flag to True ... and everything works
magically.
The only problem we do have is that I need bitmap data from
ghostscript including an alpha channel. This is available by the
pngalpha device. No problem so far, but this means I need to use the
PIL to read the ghostscript output ... so the mashasbitmap replacement
code imports the PIL for reading the transparent png.
