I was a bit too quick, the JVM OpenGL rendering seems to be inconsistent.
When I try to animate a 3d scene, the objects "jitter" around when I change 
the view angles (I usually let the scene rotate around z, thus alter the view 
azimuth from -180 to 180)

see this movie as example:

http://www.geo.unizh.ch/~morsdorf/control_trans_sm.mov

if you change the renderer to zbuffer or do not use the JVM, this behavior is 
gone, but of course, the transparency is gone as well.

Any workarounds ?
