Me again...
I've had very little success trying to customize JPanel so that it does not
erase its background. What I'm looking forward is that I have one large
panel which contains many child panels, and only the bottom panel is painted
when it's time while other panels ignore all paint messages. Simple or
complicated?

Yep, I can't believe how easy it was to completely ignore setOpaque!
