1) I'm seeing orange as the active selection in Firefox and Synaptic is still orange even after restarting. GTK3 apps look fine.

2) The on - off text on switches is too small and hard to see sometimes. I think the switches themselves could have been a little bigger but that's just an opinion.

3) The active menu highlight in the unity panel looks odd when the menu is open. It doesn't depict an association between the menu and the menu button in the panel. It might work for GnomeShell as the menus have an explicit arrow there but it looks really bad in Unity. I think something like Ambiance would be better.
