How reproducible:
---

Always

2. Go to the "Profiles" tab of the Preferences window and Edit a profile.
3. Enable background transparency (via the "Colors" tab of the "Editing Profile" window.)

Terminal is rendered with artifacts, sometimes with working transparency, other times not.


Expected results:

Terminal background becomes transparent and correctly alpha-blended as it does under X11.

Duplicate of bug 1207943 ?

Note, there is no transparency in gnome-terminal upstream AFAIK, this is a patch added downstream that breaks things with Wayland.

Sorry, I didn't find that when I first filed.  Marking as dupe.
