This should get you started. The idea is to wrap with-back-color around
the view-draw-contents method.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

(defclass colored-background-view-mixin ()
  ((background-color
    :initarg :background-color
    :initform *white-color*
    :accessor background-color)))

(defclass colored-background-view (colored-background-view-mixin view) ())

(defmethod view-draw-contents :around ((view colored-background-view-mixin))
  (with-back-color (background-color view)
    (rlet ((rect :rect :topleft #@(0 0) :botright (view-size view)))
      (#_EraseRect rect))
    (call-next-method)))

(defmethod (setf background-color) :after (color (view colored-background-view-mixin))
  (declare (ignore color))
  (invalidate-view view))
