the physical barrier can be perfectly transparent, such as a wall of glass.


Right, but that is a rare exception that I wouldn't expect to always be accounted for. (btw: thanks for the earlier message!)



Thank you for everything you've done on these fora!  (Just as one tiny example, I appreciated your recent link to the Dragon article on game transparency, but I didn't bother to thank you on the forum.)

So if my PC is hiding behind a table (cover) and there's smoke from fire (concealment) they don't stack ?  I get whichever is the bigger bonus instead ?



No, they stack.  The point of Mand12's post is that if being around a typical (non-transparent) corner provided both cover and concealment, that would be too severe a penalty, precisely because the penalties stack.
