transparency can also be an array for a few modules, e.g., plot, plot3d and text, so that symbols and texts can have varying transparency. It needs more work and should be addressed in separated PRs.

I will open a feature request after merging this PR.

Ok, but could you add at least one unit test for transparency on a module that won't have array-like transparency inputs (e.g. image)?

It means adding another baseline image to the repository. 😄

Maybe just a gallery example then, if not too much work 😶 I suppose we could come up with a smart check_figures_equal test but happy to leave that to the next PR.

There is an upcoming example in #607, but I'm not sure if the example does too many things (symbols, transparency and legends.).

Ah right, missed the transparency part on that example. I don't think we can have too many examples, if anything we have too little right now (a lot of catching up to do with matplotlib at https://matplotlib.org/gallery/index.html)!

Cool, I haven't actually used transparency before, but looks fine. An example would be nice 😉
