What a disappointment to see such a change! Is there any discussion
about this on some mailing-list? I hope it's just a bug or subject
to massive development. The graphical ">> Next" button in Anaconda's
screens is coloured as if it's disabled compared with the green "<= Back"
button. Highlighted items in Disk Druid's list view are coloured something
like bright grey on white, which is not nice to the eyes.

After initial log-in, I saw the Mozilla icon in the top panel and not
a Firefox icon. Weird. The whole desktop appearance was amateurish.
