Comment (by karmatosed):

 Just to be clear no changes are aimed at breaking. If anything they are to
 make it work better with themes. The only 'new' is being suggested colours
 and removing of some styling.

 This is all going to be far better to be demonstrated in a plugin so
 that's what I'm starting to do here:
 https://github.com/karmatosed/refreshdefault

 It has nothing in it yet but the plan will be to (hopefully with others)
 work through the following list.

 1. Clean up
 2. Making sure fonts and font sizes come from theme (px to rem would also
 be good)
 3. Remove all border radius, gradients, drop shadows (if any)
 4. Messages (error, success, notices) : particularly checking contrast
 levels on this to make sure we are accessible
 5. Buttons (comment, reply, favourite) - ideally would use the theme
 .button style for colour and not have a gradient/radius
 6. Span number indicators
 7. Loaders

 This will not be template changes. It will not substantially change the
 look. It won't HTML5ification all the things :P This isn't aimed at that.
 For that the other UI ticket would be the place :)
