The sliding panel background cannot be set to be transparent

[blah1234]

Using the demo application included in your download, I changed the background to transparent of all the child elements in the sliding panel linear layout. I would expect that the main text view "Main Content" would now be visible through the sliding panel. But that isn't the case. The sliding panel is still an opaque white color underneath the transparent child elements.
