I'm only 21, and I thought my eyesight was failing me, but I think I've found a critical flaw in the design of the Ambiance theme. I could put up with them moving my buttons and title to the left (actually, I just fixed it), but now they've done something I'm not sure how to fix. For all the crap that got thrown around about how this new design was supposed to improve usability and productivity, I'm surprised this was overlooked.

Some pictures (click for full version):

Notice in the first picture, the left pane of FileZilla has a clear visual distinction between the different column headers. When the resize handle has to be so close to catch the thing, the fact that you can't even see them with Ambiance is absurd.

I'd file a bug report, but if anyone knows how I can remedy this myself, I'd be interested to know. There doesn't seem to be any image file for the divider, so I'm guessing it's hiding in an XML file somewhere.

Any takers? I'd just like to darken it a bit (as the background is already pretty light, and lightening doesn't seem so effective in this case)
