[General] Feedback: Morphs Need setOpacity method

I don't normally use FF but I dug around in FireBug. I now understand that
every morph is already contained inside an SVG group. I suppose I just need
to hack something like this:
rawNode.style.setProperty('opacity', '0.2');

But I'm not entirely sure how to access the g node of each morph though
(this.node, this.rawNode, this.shape?) I'll keep playing - getting closer I
think.

Anyway, feedback: it would be nice if every Morph supported setOpacity to be
able to affect the opacity of each item in that group (including their
images).

That was pretty simple to hack. But Lively still may need
morph.setOpacity().
ImageMorph.subclass("enhanced.ImageMorph", {
 initialize: function($super, rectangle, imagePath) {
         $super(rectangle, imagePath);

this.rawNode.style.setProperty('opacity', '0.2');
this.setFillOpacity(0.0);
}
});

Hi,

sorry I forgot to inform you. I already added the opacity setter/
getter to ImageMorph yesterday. You can now do stuff like:

x = new ImageMorph(new Rectangle(45, 45, 49, 49),  
URL.source.withFilename('mouse.png').toString());
x.openInWorld();
x.setOpacity(0.3)
