Maybe I'm missing your point, but both "opaque" and "transparent" allow you to use z-indexing to position HTML elements over the top of a SWF. The only difference is that "opaque" doesn't let anything show through from underneath it. But it seems like you should still be able to stack your html on top of an opaque wmode and keep it to one SWF.
