I agree - the selected field highlighting is a nice touch, and given ubuntu's strength is in the many "nice touches" that are everywhere (like burning an ISO from the right click menu) I feel that it would be nice to keep this one.
I also feel that murrine does not look as professional compared to the clearlooks theme, however this is a matter of opinion (though I do like the glossy effects over the somewhat boring ones that clearlooks uses.)
