The changes to Stacks are certainly for the better, although I will still use the fan view for quick access to my most recent downloads. I'll also be keeping my menu bar translucent for now as I prefer it to Tiger's bland gray strip but it's good to now I can change it in need. Choice is always good, after all.

While I'd say the faux-transparent menu bar problem hasn't been solved unless that ugly extra preference has been removed from system preferences again (I mean this is the Mac, a new preference for each bad idea should remain in a feature of Linux world), we at least have a one-click solution for the main problem now. It even restores subpixel anti-aliasing. Stability-wise, my impressions may not be as good as yours, though. Yes, a very mixed bag indeed.
