EVALUATION The effect is only observed if the user makes the frame non-opaque after setting the shape. If the user first makes her/his frame non-opaque, and only after that sets the shape, the frame behaves as expected. Seems to be the native system issue (as per the previous evaluation, the system does respect the shape in terms of the mouse clicks).

EVALUATION The results of some experiments: 1. This issue is not reproducible when running over rdesktop connection. 2. This issue is not reproducible when the setWindowShape() invokation happens in the componentResized() of the component listener (which should, probably, be considered the recommended practice). 3. When this problem is reproducible, Windows respects the shape in terms of mouse-clicks, meaning the user may click into the areas that should not be painted, and these clicks get correctly dispatched to other applications (under the translucent window). 4. After runnning java with -Dsun.java2d.trace=log for the first time, the bug disappeared.
