Fully transparent window opaque to mouse?

Hello all,

Is there a way to create a full screen window which has an alpha value of 0
(fully transparent) but which is opaque to mouse events? I have thus far
found that setting the window alpha below 0.06 or so causes mouse events to
pass through the window.

If not, is there a way to install a desktop-wide mouse event filter, so that
I can intercept these events before they are dispatched to other Apps?
Thanks
