They're only fixing the things that any user _can_ fix. Yes, these fixes are necessary and I was definitely not impressed by any of the recent default window decorations, But there are bigger fish to fry. The consumption of vertical resolution, for instance, is appalling. Compare Eclipse on Windows vs. Ubuntu:

That is just ridiculous. And not something I can easily fix. It is something I'm actually working on right now. But yeah, the new theme looks good.
