I'm actually liking the dark menus effect.  It's a nice contrast for
visually-impaired people and well.. older people too.  Takes away the
"spotlight" effect that so many people seem to think is cool these days.

My biggest problem currently with the sonar theme is with the dark
bars/panel.  It would be nice if the active window were easily a
different shade from the other windows.   And the dark bars blend in too
easily with the panel (I have my panel on top) so it makes it harder to
see the difference between active window and panel just above the
window.

There are some issues with the icons both in panel and elsewhere.  But
that can be resolved as well I'm sure.
