This (gray80/gray75) is noticable to me. It does look better to me
than no differentiation. I don't think most users not tuned in to
this discussion would consciously notice the difference between the
widget and text backgrounds. I suspect many would not be able to tell
exactly what the difference was between an 80/80 frame and an 80/75
frame if displayed side-by-side, but that they would express a
definite preference. I suspect the preference would be for the
differentiated frame.
I prefer 80/75 to a tinted differentiation (the pink alternative
sounds wretched).
Having seen a few proposals, I have no opinion on the best default
among them (the comment about "wreteched pink" comes from too much
Aerosmith on Japanese radio, perhaps).
FWIW
