I do the same thing (i.e. run emacs from gnome-terminal with emacs -nw), for (probably questionable) aesthetic reasons: I like my emacs sessions to have the same look as all my terminal sessions. I'm a recent convert/refugee to gnome from a fairly brutal minimalist window manager (ion3), and am quite taken with things like semi-transparent backgrounds. So I have a darkish desktop background pattern which is visible behind my emacs and terminal sessions. The leading stars are not very visible in a dark face, so that's OK. I assume there's no obvious way to set the org-hide face so that the leading stars are transparent? (or even, transparent to the same degree as the background of my gnome-terminal?)
