By "always visible" do you mean the dock configuration setting "Always
on top"?

I don't have this issue with the theme that I am using with cairo-dock
3.0.1 and xubuntu 11.04. The transparent part of the dock is probably
something with that specific theme (I may be wrong I am not that
familiar with that part).  To test this you could save your current
theme and try different ones to see if the issue gets resolved on
different themes.

I do know that with the dock set to "Always on top" it is up to the user
to manage the windows because you have set the dock to always be over
top of any other windows (for me the close and maximize buttons are not
covered so they work but tabs in a browser can be covered because of my
dock being in the center top of the screen).

If you want to reserve space for the dock so maximized windows don't go
under the dock then there is a setting for this called "Reserve space
for the dock". This setting will tell the window manager not to put
windows under the dock.

I know the xfce panel used to have a setting to reserve space as well
but I see now that it just forces reserve space unless the panel is set
to auto hide.
