It already does alpha in GIF files... unfortunately their alpha channel is
either 0% or 100%.  It's really just a simple mask color.

I'm thinking of arbitrary alpha/translucency, like with so many .png and
.tiff icons.  Does this mean that I can start creating avatars with shadows
aand halos and stuff?
