  I could get behind reducing the opacity. Perhaps to 0.7 or 0.6. Removing the 
frame for the scroll area to get rid of the extra lines on the top or bottom 
when it's scrollable could also make sense now that these lines are a part of 
the design. But I'll need a bit of convincing to agree to making the lines have 
different widths.
  
  Stepping back, the goal was to separate the three distinct elements from one 
another so that they actually look like three distinct elements. I wanted to 
move away from the "everything merges into everything else" look and towards a 
look that says "this is a structured thing with a header and a tab bar and a 
content area".
  
  To a certain extent, this goal was compromised because I couldn't get the 
lines to touch the actual edge (any ideas how to do that, #plasma 
<https://phabricator.kde.org/tag/plasma/> folks?).
  
  But I feel like reducing the line length takes us in the opposite direction 
by making the header and the content view seem like a part of the same thing, 
with a superfluous line between them. The obvious next question is, "why do we 
need that line, can't we get rid of it?" and then we're back to where we 
started. All of this stems from not being confident enough in Kickoff's visual 
identity to confidently separate things IMHO.
  
  Am I making any sense here?
