A big fat -1 from me. From my perspective the rectangular frame is ugly. 
Simple as that. It's visually unpleasant and in conflict with the rest 
of the window and the default shouldn't be that. If the new cue is too 
subtle to be of use for you personally, that's what we got preferences 
for, but I think we should at least *try* to get a teenie weenie bit 
less heinous in the default L&F.
