There was supposed to be a checkerboard on the original swatch element, but now I see that it isn't updating properly.  I could do any of these:
 * Make the swatch element update to show transparency (I think this is just a background image that isn't being applied)
 * Put a checkboard behind the actual colorpicker region and apply transparency to that.  I am not a huge fan of this, since when you have alpha it is hard to see the actual h/s/v you have chosen.
 * Show a label next to the transparency slider to make it clear that it is for changing alpha
 * Show a text representation of currently selected color inside of the picker.  Note: this is currently happening in the actual value element that you are modifying, but it may be hard to see.

I don't have any problem dropping the close button, it really doesn't look very good - I just used an existing icon from the project.
