I'm planning to make a sort of diorama, and the 3D nature of it is going to require suspending things in clear gelatin.

Are there flavorings that would work that wouldn't significantly affect the color and opacity of the gelatin, or its setting strength?

You can use Lorann flavors, they don't affect the clarity of gelatin:enter image description here

A lot of flavourings are clear to begin with. They are colored artificially to make them look "real". I brew beer and I have seen several alcohol-based extracts to use as flavouring that are clear. They are pretty concentrated and are not expensive. I have used a blueberry flavoured extract before that was clear. Surely you can find something online. If you are having trouble finding something, you might check a local homebrewing store or one on the internet.

Add white grape juice/green grape juice to make the color of you jelly clear.You can also ad condensed milk to make it sweet or you can add syrup or sugar!

You can add grape juice to gelatin to make grape flavored jelly.
