I'm not sure about the graphics, though, and not just, because I don't like drop or standout shadows. If it is just for the eye candy factor, than I wouldn't care much. It also might make patches even less portable than they are now, for example in regard to different font size rendering on Windows and Linux.
Could you please elaborate on portability issues? because I don't see them. The bevels I added are inside the boxes; I didn't change the size of the boxes, except accidentally, and I would reverify everything before actually submitting a diff.
Windows and XFree use different default dpi. So many of the patches created on Windows use a 12 font, while many Linux users prefer font size 10. 10 looks tiny on Windows, whereas 12 looks rather large on Linux. The problem is, that tighly spaced objects will overlap on Linux, but might look nice on Windows. Actually your changes probably won't collide with this particular problem.
Did you do some performance tests?
ciao
