Hey Kevin,

That's a very thoughtful design improvement from the previous.

Apart from the pixel alignments (looks nice between the toolbar and  
the top of the left-side outline view but not so tight at the top of  
the table view in the screen shot), I think you could once again look  
at a Script Editor window for the look of the status bar at the  
bottom of the window where there is an anti-aliased line separating  
the status bar from whatever is above it. And the idea of a split  
view separator (or line) between the bottom of the table view and the  
top of the text view. Similarly in Mail for the right-hand side of  
the left-anchored outline view. Also there's the tell-tale square  
look of the resize widget where the upper left diagonal does not  
blend in with the background.
