It would be a good move to add transparency to the controls that do not already support it like Label and String.

Label? TextGadget perhaps? PureCOLOR (a PB Library) can make the background for the TextGadgets transparent I believe, as for the String gadgets,
you could make them look transparent with clever placement of images etc. Also, take a look at PureCOLOR and ProGUI, both very useful libraries for
interface design.

It can of course be done but Windows in particular wants to overwrite your settings with it's own. Cross-platform, it becomes a very big task, which is why there are dedicated 3rd party form design libraries. Qt is probably the ultimate example.
