Allow Better Transparency Support for Armor in Resource Packs

Currently, if you change a texture for armor to be colored transparent, but not fully transparent, the transparency renders properly on the player model. However, it does not render properly on armor stands and mobs. While there may be a performance hit for rendering that much transparency, I think it would be nice to render the textures the way they're designed by the resource pack creator. Also, you could tie this ability to graphics options where if you have graphics set to fancy it properly renders on all and if set to fast it renders the way it does now.

    I know this is probably not gonna get any attention but I would really love to see that happen!
    I might add that transparency on the player only works as long as the armor is not enchanted. Once its enchanted I think Helm and Boots suddenly render non-transparent and if you put on an ecnhanted chestplate and pants then they dont render transparent anymore and stuff.
    I dont know howw hard it is to implement this but I'd still be very happy if you'd do that ^^ I really like the design of my armor with transparency but cant really use it so far
