Hi Hugo,

Tabs don't have a special header, they are a header just as any other 
header (created by the MainView).
The header background is already themable via the theme's .header 
backgroundSource and backgroundColor properties.
See 
http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/ubuntu-12.10/qml/mobile/theming-components.html 
for more information about changing theming properties.

Making it transparent is not recommendable because then you would see 
the contents of the page behind the text, but setting the background of 
the mainview and of the header to the same image/color will give the 
illusion of having a transparent header background.

Greets,
Tim.
