I'm not aware of any method to do this, and apparently (since noone else 
answered) noone else is.  You may be able to use a transparent panel and 
something underneath it if you're running compiz, but I don't think the 
gnome-panel normal transparency option will do (it copies a portion of your 
desktop background as its themed background rather than truly making the panel 
transparent).
