Just curious, because if the answer is "yes" then that might open up some interesting possibilities :-)

Yes, you should be able to create any SVG ( Scalable Vector Graphics ) path with the createObj function. Just set the fillColor property to an html color that includes transparency (#RRGGBB AA ). The trickiest part is calculating the coords and formatting the path JSON properly.

Look at WeaponArcs for an example of a script that does this.
