Reproducible: Always

This is not a dup of bug 613714. It is about the box's opacity, which is very different from background blur!

We explicitly considered this, and I don't think it's a significant readability issue. The transparency is slight, and the background is blurred -- OS X menus use a similar effect, and they're entirely text.

The blur is important to making this style acceptable (see bug 498258); if we end up removing/changing it the dialog's background will likely need to be be fully opaque.

It looks like the transparency disables subpixel anti-aliasing. I don't think this is a problem for native menus. And yes, we should probably remove the blur, if only because it seems to be super slow.

FWIW, Joe Drew says the anti-aliasing thing is a known bug, and will be fixed.
