Hi all.

Some of you might have already noticed, that the Adwaita theme has been updated recently. It now includes a full GTK2 port, replacing the old Clearlooks fallback. That's great in general, but seems to cause some issues with non-GNOME DEs.

First of all, drop down menus do no longer have borders. This has been the case with GTK3 apps, already, and has been reported upstream a long time ago (without any real reaction). 

Besides that the panel window buttons are looking stucked now, as there is no spacing between and around them.

What are your ideas to handle these things? Is switching to another theme an option (maybe Greybird, which seems to be maintained well and is accepted by the userbase, already)?
