I imagine this is under the window NSTextView responsibility. Has someone already succeeded in programming a totally transparent NSTextField, or shall I recourse to a CATextLayer instead?

My next step (which is my way of saying I haven't tried it) would be to investigate -[<NSWindowDelegate> windowWillReturnFieldEditor:toObject:], and set the field editor's backgroundColor (it's in NSText) to the transparent color.
