What does "flat UI" mean exactly, IMHO when compared to other mobile OS'es SFOS looks pretty flat already?
(at least to my untrained eye...)

I'd love to see this without transparencies and with colours for default/primary buttons rather than ambiance set colours.

Busy textures and transparent layers aren't used too. Microsoft's metro UI is perhaps the biggest proponent of Flat. Android Material design is also flat and Apple went flat but kept some transparency and light drop shadows in iOS 7. Harmattan was also mostly flat and IMHO much cleaner than Sailfish. I was quite shocked Jolla used textures in their Silica components and never did get used to it.

Since I dont understand the technical side of this patch, just by looking this visually, this looks great, with exception of pulley menus that I would personally see as ugly. Is there a chance to have option which ui-elements are changed and what are not (like leaving the pulley-menus as they are "normally" ?

Another "ugly" issue are the big points on the top of windows which show you can swipe forward or backward. Your patch makes them just plain disks, it appears pretty weird. I'll try to give you some screenshots.
This patch flattens the glass items in Sailfish Silica components for those who love flat ui for Sailfish 1.1.2.16 only.
The 1.1.0 version is uploaded wrongly and it doesn't work. The latest version 1.2.0 is uplodated.
If you downloaded and installed the 1.1.0 version, please followed the guide in openrepos and fix it. Sorry for my silly mistake...
