I see no reason why any application should demand them (imagine a user disliking them). Second, all GTK widgets can be more or less transparent by default. This is how they behave for me. Setting widget transparency globally (e.g. thru Gnome or XFCE global configurations) is enough. And I don't know how to get them programmaticallly.... Why do you demand transparent widgets, instead of just using the default GTK behavior -which can behave transparently if so configured?

Take a look at Resource Files and Tutorials at art.gnome.org This answer suggests that text tags might be customized as I asked here but I don't see how to acheve such text tag customization. Did I miss something? Regards.
