Hi Regina
Thanks for the review. This is not a straightforward area, so help thinking
about it is much appreciated.
My understanding so far is that in MSO the solid color fill can have a
transparency which is expressed as a percentage value.
This is interoperable in LO when we select a color on Area -> Color and set a
percentage transparency value on the Transparency tab.
It is also possible to set a Transparency value for a Gradient type fill in
MSO, and that could be imported/exported, but the export currently does not
work.

This is only about not setting something that cannot be exported anyways.
Import would be a different beast... I mean bug.

What I'd like disable here is, to my understanding: the gradient of the
transparency, which is nonexisting in OOXML.
Not the gradients transparency, which is similarly to the color fills
transparency a percentage value and could be transformed to the Transparency
spinbox of the Transparency tab.</pre>
