Unable to get rid of padding and set background color to "none" on Storyline Block

Hi Ned,

It's not a question of making the padding the same color as the background. It's a question on getting rid of the padding altogether so that there is no space between blocks. Sometimes you need to do this for design purposes where you want to make 2 consecutive blocks seem like one block. We can do this with all other blocks, why not the Storyline Block? 

As for the background color, why should the Storyline Block behave in a different way than the other blocks? And if the default color for this block is light grey, why does the background color thumbnail show a checkerboard for transparency? 

Yes, I can change the color, but what bugs me is the time lost trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. If padding cannot be zero, why show it at zero in settings? If the background cannot be transparent, then why show the checkerboard pattern? This all leads to confusion and time lost posting messages on forums. Consistency should be part of a good software.
