popup or glasspanel that ignores events

I've been trying to get GlassPanel to overlay the entire screen and
pass all events to the underlying components... (think of it as adding
smokey haze to the app :>) ... I looked around at PopupPanel as well
but it seems to have the same issue ... this is intended to hi-light a
sensitive edit mode to the user that might otherwise seem like normal
editing.... thinking about adding an image or styled text so there is
a watermarking effect.

But I have not had success ... tried instantating an anonymous
extension of GlassPanel constructed with 'autohide=true' (so that
onEventPreview is called) overriding onEventPreview and returning true
for all events... didn't work but I suspect that since the other
components underneath are not children then they would never get the
events... seems like a matter of focus.

Anyone know how I might be able to allow the event be completely
ignored by a transparent layer?

Thanks for any tips
