Set opacity of elements

It would be very useful to be able to adjust elements' (or more specifically images') opacity on the fly. Would allow for users to much more easily create smooth effects & transition variants (fade-in progress tied to variables, etc*) without the need for lots of images or specially-assembled asset variants/anims. Right now I think it's conceptually possible to set up a variable-based opacity with that kind of system, but it would be super cumbersome to make adjustments to and quickly eat up storage space.
also, to memory, I think it's possible to adjust fade in time when elements load? but while useful, that isn't as versatile as this ability would be.
I think this would be a pretty powerful addition to the toolkit as far as menu interactivity & responsive elements.
It's come up a few times in the discord in the past couple months as well, so I know I'm not the only one who would find use in this!

*a couple example use cases-- slow fade between weather or time variants of a menu pulling from the system clock, elements that increase in opacity as the mouse nears them
