everybody please checkout the last revision (also backported)
it's about that percentage more opaque, i think it's quite easy to read both 
on black and white backgrounds.
on really noisy wallpapers is still a bit crappy, but the only way to avoid 
that would be to have a 95%-100% opacity.. and would be another theme :)
aanyways, checks this and there is always time to correct it
