Certain themes like the community theme "Homosapien" have transparency in particular apps such as Gnome Terminal and Gnome System Monitor. Is this a bug?

This is a feature of the murrine engine that powers some themes. You only see it on applications that have support for it, such as gnome-system-monitor, unless you add the rgba module to GTK+, which honestly I don't suggest you do unless you are willing to put up with the work required to find all the incompatible programs and add work arounds.
I think its a feature. http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2007/12/gnome-theme-engine-designer-adds-transparency-to-gtk.ars
