You are right that setting the translucency affects the text. However, it does also affect the background, and I would not call this behavior a bug, exactly. I would say the property is slightly misnamed. Instead of caret.line.back.alpha, it might be more accurate to call it caret.line.alpha, since this setting affects everything on the line. (Note that there is selection.fore, selection.back, and selection.alpha.) However, I can also understand why it would be named the way it is, because caret.line.back is the color which you are adjusting the translucency of, if you use translucency.

So, here's a little workaround: use caret.line.back.alpha.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Nicolas, it does help. It's not exactly what I want, but it's a reasonable approximation.
