Answer 1

See How to Create Translucent and Shaped Windows.. It mentions a "per pixel" translucency that you can leverage to make a window with java 7 that has the look and feel of the translucent window from java 6 which is no longer available. So basically you'd have to code to accommodate either, or you could go with a "uniform translucency" which works with both.
