Description
When window opacity while focused is set to 100%, the background while unfocused doesn't follow the Unfocused Appearance settings:
Some extra padding allows you to see that the background is there, but the command window is opaque.
As soon as opacity is less than 100%, the background behaves as expected while unfocused:
It doesn't matter what profile is used (note the displayed settings are defaults) - even when the settings are applied to individual profiles the behavior is the same.
I'll provide whatever other info I can, just let me know what's needed.

Research direction
No source files, tests, or entry points are named. First reproduce the issue with focused opacity at 100% and compare it with a value below 100%, then trace the implementation of focused and unfocused opacity. Done means the Unfocused Appearance settings remain visible when focused opacity is 100%.
