AlphaContainer will paint its content (1 widget) onto lower levels using
a transparency (0..1)

Example:

    local alpha
    alpha = AlphaContainer:new{
        alpha = 0.7,

        FrameContainer:new{
            background = Blitbuffer.COLOR_WHITE,
            bordersize = Size.border.default,
            margin = 0,
            padding = Size.padding.default
        }
    }
