Ok, it works as you (the main developer) expect it to work. 
This does not automaticaly mean it is clear to everbody else.

examples ? 

- The transparency is generally given as 0=off, 255=full.
  If you want to set it by hand, the transparency for fonts 
  is given in form of alphachannel values : 0=full, 255=off. 
- The progressbar widget doesn't read a "label" property. 
  (If it does read it, it does not work here)

Great idea. A list in the online help, which defines all 
supported properties for every widget would be a first step. 

> PS: If possible, please post the theme definition for the ProgressBar.

So here it is: 

  <widget>
    <type value="BarTreble"/>
    <object>
      <name value="Background"/>
      <filename name="background" value="vines/statusbar.png"/>
      <property name="transparency" value="0"/>
      <property name="backmode" value="STRETCH"/>
      <property name="bordersize" value="0"/>
    </object>
    <object>
      <name value="Indicator"/>
      <filename name="background" value="vines/indicator.png"/>
      <property name="backmode" value="TILE"/> 
    </object>
  </widget>

This does not work. if the backmode if the "Indicatior" object 
is set to TILE only the gradient is shown.
The backmode on the "Background" object does work as expected.
