Hey Neil - that's a great question that I was actually pondering myself. Not sure how you're implementing everything, but wondering if a simple semi-transparent png vs fully opaque might do the trick (but it doesn't sound like you want to be manually updating the transparency of each image). Other than that, I couldn't find anything off the bat about setting the opacity. It could never hurt to try and pass an opacity param (0<opacity<1). If that doesn't work, you could always try to view the layer in firebug and access it's css properties and add the opacity that way.
