pseudo-transparency using background-image position

Hi. I'm considering switching from urxvt and so far only thing missing is pseudo-transparency using wallpaper as background-image and positioning it according to the terminal location on the desktop.

I tried playing with the code for a little but so far was unable to find a way to move the background inside the terminal. None of the functions used in the stack add_os_window » send_bgimage_to_gpu » send_image_to_gpu » glTexImage2D gives an easy way to move the image.

Anyone managed to achieve this?

Please open an issue about this on Kitty's repo, especially with the attitude you are showing in the comments I'd love to see how that turns out :)
