Will that "Big part of the decision process" include maybe changing things the vast community disagrees with? There happens to be a poll Here, with a current total of 277 votes ,and an overwhelming majority of those (89%, at time of writing) advocates at least a size/color change, while some prefer something more drastic.

Should you be interested in gathering feedback on which of the 3 Versions would gain the largest interest, how about you make it a switch in preferences(or even a script import), that allows us to select the version we prefer? I daresay you will see an increase in use of the bar if you do that, since some people will remove the bar-hiding scripts from their personal JS.
