What an interesting problem! 

As noted elsewhere, I have some ideas about a tool in TW intended for quick 
mockup creation to illustrate things in TW. The idea is to use embedded 
images depicting TW specific elements such as "a blank button", "a generic 
tiddler" etc. It would be very valuable if it was possible to seemingly 
draw on these - but even better if it was possible to *write* on them. For 
example take a blank button and write "New tiddler" on it.

Do you (I guess I'm talking to Tobias now, but anyone please do reply) 
think this would be possible in TW? 

I'm thinking, maybe it is possible to set the background of the text field 
to be transparent? So if, as you indicate, one could put a text field in 
front of another then...

Maybe a special tiddler template containing two text fields, same size, and 
placed just next to eachothers... but instead one has another z-index and 
is offset with the length of it's width so it overlaps perfectly. I know it 
is possible with overlapping text like that because if you for instance 
open tiddler PageTemplate 
<http://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2Fcore%2Fui%2FPageTemplate>, you see this 
overlap effect in the sidebar head! What if we can *use* this to our 
advantage!

A TW glass feature!

I can imagine a lot of possibilities opening if we could do this. Imagine 
an iframe that you could add annotations to, *on* it.
