Steps to reproduce:
In bug 891786 comment 9 (and 10), talking about applying the persona to the find bar on top:

I've made a comparison screenshot of the same persona in Aurora and in the current Nightly that has been undergoing many visual changes. I'm not exactly sure how many more changes will the Australis look bring yet, hopefully some of them will at least attempt to bring the UI together. But when I look at the Nightly screenshot, I don't see a "unified" visual UI like I do in Aurora, I see 3 small windows (nav bar at the top, sidebar, content with find bar heading it), each with its own colors and looks.
If this persona look really was considered on purpose then all I have to say is I'm sure there will be many (many!) people unpleased with how their firefox will look. The Australis theme may indeed look visually appealing by itself, but applying a persona to it, at least for now with only the changes that have been implemented so far, it is far from even tolerable. I would not use a persona if I was using the current Nightly as my default browser. It looks like the browser is... broken in pieces.
I would strongly suggest to at least consider some ways to better unify the browser look when using personas. Implementing bug 891786 would be a start.

WONTFIX for the same reason as discussed in bug 891786. Having the image descend into just the top of the sidebar makes for a weird horizontal discontinuity (as if the sidebar on the left is shorter than the content area on the right).
