Paint F/X and objects with transparency....??

Paint F/X and objects with transparency....??

I'm having a problem with Paint F/X showing up OVER objects with transparencies
on them...
aka I'm rendering a window with transparency and in the background are some
paint f/x strokes...they render as if
they were in FRONT of the damn window.

Now I know that this is b/c they are applied in post-rendering and I know the
first solution is to comp them...
but the window pain has raindrops on it that I CAN'T render seperately (which
is another issue...I'm using a very transparent water
texture on blobby surface particles..and in the scene the transparency works
great..but if I render the particles by themselves and
check the alpha they have no transparency at all...wtf?).

So is there a way to get paint F/X to obey the transparency laws?
