Description
A few releases ago basic support for transparency group support was added. Mainly transparency support for a group of shapes and knockouts.
The current implementation will detect a transparency group flag on the form object. If detected painting is deferred and the shapes painted to image so that a transparency group can be applied. The problem with this approach is that image will look blurred as document zoom is applied.
It may be possible to spawn a new graphics context with g2d.createGraphics() in a similar but alternative means to creating the image. A little bit of research needs to be done here.

I've been working on an over fix for transparency group support and soft masking for groups. Still a lot of work to do, moving out to 5.0.
