Some feedback : 1. the blue used is much too agressive, while I agree we should move away from gray-only the UI should stay unobstrusive, quiet and out-of-the-way. 2. the proposed title/menu bars are much too wasteful of space. It may work for a simple app like nautilus but won't for dense ones like OO.o and the Gimp. The design must accomodate the text the app displays at the size the user chose, and not the reverse. I'm sorry if I may sound harsh, but your proposal seems typical of the screenshot-oriented design approch which fares so bad in real life. For this kind of endeavour usability concerns should be the priority and art take the back seat. Please do work through the usability SIG. A dull concept won't kill us. A hard-to-use one certainly will.
