My personal preference is to have the panel (taskbar) transparent 
(partial transparency).

I find it a little too bright.

I also noted the color gradient used wor the window border, is 
techincally possible to have something like this?

Keep in mind F8 is aiming for a short 5 months release schedule, so 
everything is tight.
With that in perspective, I thing one month for defining some basic 
concepts is OK, maybe the second milestone for polishing somehow tight 
(but not impossible) and the third, another full month, for 
fully-polishing enough again, at that time we should have a clear idea 
and the final polishing is to a large degree mechanical.
