I had tried to resolve this when I first wrote the spinner code, but I ran into some difficulty. I can't remember exactly what it was, but I suspect it was something like the way GtkSpinner uses a Cairo context makes it difficult to subclass and teach it to draw a transparent background. I say this without looking at the code, however.
