I was able to do the click through using the invisible path. The project was a kind of weird puzzle, so the click through was a must.

I upped my prototype here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/491131/puzzle/puzzle.html You can only drag the camel.

Eventually I gave up because I wasn't able to drag the piece correctly if it was rotated.

That's awesome, thanks for showing me that. It would definitely be cool to implement something similar for browsers with SVG support, then fallback to the generated spans for those without.

Raphael is so awesome that it works even on IE, using VML, with the same sane API.
