Sorry, this isn't actually true.  It renders all the simple objects at
the bottom normally, then renders all the objects from the first complex
one to the last complex one via a bitmap and then renders the on top
simple objects normally.

So, the case of a single transparent object on top will actually only
render the one object via the bitmap.  If you have one transparent
object on top and another at the bottom then it will render the whole
document via the bitmap.
