jdbrown [1] filed a request to merge gnome-terminal-transparent [2] into gnome-terminal-fedora [3]: Yep, the patch to restore transparency is taken from Fedora and the new gnome-terminal-fedora package also has the dark theme restoring there. The two packages are somewhat duplicate and I think gnome-terminal-fedora has a better name.
