From the old AppKit release notes, circa 10.3 <https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#releasenotes/Cocoa/AppKitOlderNotes.html>: > We fixed -setIgnoresMouseEvents: so that it works more reliably for opaque > windows that want to be transparent to mouse events, and also works for > transparent windows that want to receive mouse events.

So, it is apparently intentional that setIgnoresMouseEvents:NO will make a transparent window non-transparent to mouse events. I recognize that this seems to be a change in Lion vs. Snow Leopard, but the Lion behavior seems to restore intended behavior. I guess you'll know for sure when Apple responds to your bug report.
