Not quite true AFAIK. The PSP backend has an 1bit alpha channel in its 
overlay, at least when I remember it correctly. I had some talk about 
that with joostp, when I was working on the old "new gui". Of course one 
might want to argue whether to call it "alpha channel" or not :-). 
(Seeing that you're talking about 1bit alpha channels later on I guess 
you would call it "alpha channel")
