Public bug reported:

We got design feedback on the overview, see below with my replies, will
post more as I know more:

That's because they're actually images of the same size as the dash,
scaled down, so the radius looks smaller. We'll try changing the radius
to small and resolve the scaling issue.

Agreed, we need to override aspect ratio to be that of the dash.

Same issue as with corners above. We should be able to disable the
shadows though.

black.

Everywhere? We allowed for scopes to override this explicitly based on
the visual designs.

We have a fix for the horizontal alignment, vertical, however, is not
something that the toolkit allowed. Should we always make them centered
in the overlay if there's only the title (across the whole dash, not
just in overview)?

It's the same 40GU width. We did not, however, apply the latest margins
and sizes from the dash redlines you prepared, yet. It's all still as
spec'ed out in the dash toolkit spec.

The overlay is defined to be as high as the maximum header + 1GU
padding. Meaning in this case it's two lines of title text + 2GU. Again,
that's the case across the dash, if we wanted to change it.

See above.
