I think they need to make unity more themeable so theme's like the one you 
propose can be made.

I love this idea so I did some mockups: 

Desktop 
Dash 
Window Theme 
Indicator Menu 

I recommend downloading the attachments and viewing them fullscreen to get a 
real idea. 
The window theme and the indicator menu are not transparent, but I don't think 
they need to be either. In this particular case transparency adds graphical 
requirement without achieving a great deal IMHO. I think that an opaque theme 
which dynamically matches the background colour would work just as well. 

Thoughts? 


fake transparency is what this method has been called for long. 
I still prefer some alpha, perhaps with blur..
