Border with rounded corners & transparency
N.B. There is a clipping bug in this code, which is fixed in the accepted answer to paintComponent() is drawing on other components. This should only be considered as a solution if the 'clipping bug fix' is incorporated.
// Paint the BG color of the parent, everywhere outside the clip
// of the text bubble.

How can I make div rounded corners with transparent background?
for a simple Radius, use this CSS:
div{
-moz-border-radius:10px; /* for Firefox */
-webkit-border-radius:10px; /* for Webkit-Browsers */
border-radius:10px; /* regular */
opacity:0.5; /* Transparent Background 50% */
}

Transparent border radius outside
Use box-shadow instead of border:
box-shadow: 0 0 0 4px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.51);
Cause a transparent border will transpare the background beneath,
while if you use the spread
value in the box-shadow property you're good to go:
Example demo
Also as suggested by @vals you can go with background-clip
to retain the background size into the content-box
size model cause otherwise goes into the default border-box.
