Jeff,

you are right that those guys do not really say anything helpful. I am 
using the default theme and I find it both beautiful and usable, as well 
as Enlightenment as a whole. It is very carefully engineered and not 
getting in the way.

To me, the theme is "classic", yet very polished, reminding me of 90's, 
in a good way. Not needlessly big, as elsewhere. I am not a designer but 
I do not see a reason for everything becoming flat or bright; the look 
is pretty this way, balanced.

I might point out though some little flaws that I did not have time to 
report yet:

- The battery meter is not very readable to me (with 1.0 scaling). On 
hover, the displayed numbers are WHITE, too small and positioned very 
close to the "reflection" on the battery. I cannot deduce if the second 
line is an estimation of time remaining. A little pop-up (after a click, 
like with a calendar?) would do a better job, optionally. (Some 
minimalist guys might want to stick to the two lines being displayed 
over the battery icon.)

- Additionally, I believe it should distinguish the two states of 
running on A/C vs. running on battery more sharply, even when the 
battery is fully charged. The + sign when charging is too little. A 
charging connector or another indication should be displayed when fully 
charged and running on A/C.

- Third, I get the "battery too low" message too soon (at about 50% when 
there is plenty of energy left)

I will post these as bugs as soon as I have time to do so.

Thank you and the team for the lot of work you have put into Enlightenment!
