Hi Thomas!
Unfortunately I it does not work like you described in my situation.
1) A palette file with only r,g,b values does not work, regardless of
imagemode "rgb" or imagemode "rgba". It should have worked with imagemode
"rgb" (or am I wrong?)
2)Imagemode "rgb" produces transparent pictures (which should not happen if
I understood you correct) if the WMS parameter transparent=true. This is
with quantize_force=on and quantize_colors=256 is set, or no color reduction
at all.
3)Palette_force=true with palette file and the WMS transparent=true
parameter produces an image where nodata areas is filled with blacks,
regardless of imagemode "rgb" or imagemode "rgba"
