Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19042-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 472.12

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.0.0, branch: master, commit date: 2021-12-02 18:35, hash: rBf1cca3055776
Worked: 2.93

Short description of error
There is no option to change NodeGroup background color (with alpha).
Also (if it's intended for 3.0, but imho it's a bad decision) BG color in ShaderEditor is different than in NodeGroup

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
default "Blender Dark" theme

in Shader Editor
in NodeGroup

more visual example:
if we change "Themes - Node Editor - Theme Space - Window Background" green channel to 0.5

in Shader Editor
in NodeGroup

Also, alpha for Group Node color in 3.0.0 not working as in 2.93

Blender 2.93 Blender 3.0.0

This appears to be an intentional change made as part of these commits: rB919e513fa8f9f rBebe23745281e86

Asking for this area of the user interface to be themeable again is technically a feature request and we don't keep track of feature requests on this site. However since this is technically a regression of some kind, I will ask @Pablo Vazquez (pablovazquez) or @Dalai Felinto (dfelinto) to comment on this.

Oh, now I see.
I suppose, to be consistent with other colors for nodes, alpha parameter for "Group Node" need to be removed.

The alpha parameter was removed (2648d920d8ac5c590a6fc28e). Thanks for spotting that.
