This is not supported. There is no blend in overlay.

Any transparent objects of this type need to be redrawn in the
framebuffer each frame.

"One of the best-known folk theorems of software engineering is that
60% to 75% of conventional software projects are either never
completed or rejected by their intended users. If that range is
anywhere near true (and I've never met a manager of any experience
who disputes it) then more projects than not are being aimed at goals
which are either (a) not realistically attainable, or (b) just plain
wrong."
