Hi, thanks for the nice program!

I wanted to use it for something a little bit different:

This PR isn't intended to be merged, but it shows how I achieved this. If there is interest, and someone can give me a bit of guidance on a decent way to pass "key released" events through the program's various layers, I could work on turning this into a set of options that enable this mode.

I also wanted to make the overlay window transparent except for the text, but I could not get this work (see notes under 5e0898f for details). In fact the existing opacity setting does not work for me either, even though my WM supports transparency and the scr.get_rgba_colormap() operation succeeds.
