Which do you think is more important: for indicator menus to have the
same style as other pull-down menus, or the same style as the Dash?

a homogenous surface called Unity, preferrably transparency-enabled, so the Dash.

The Dash partly solves this readability problem by using larger text
whenever possible. Menus can't.

I think the Dash and the Unity Launcher are handsome, because they form a see-through overlay interface above live content, kinda like a sheet of blurry glass.
It's a quite comprehensible metaphor, only that the top-right-corner part of this metaphor is broken, i can't see through it.
