I don't think either one of those options are available.  The best bet might be to tweak the OSM code in your source tree to do the transparency.  You might be able to steal the method for that from the .geo code.  Ask questions if you get stuck.  If you're not a coder/hacker, then maybe somebody else on here might be interested in helping.  If something generally useful results, pass it back and we'll add it to CVS.
