Wow, that's exciting!

My biggest problem with it is that it doesn't look like a button at
all.

They are except for the ones that are obviously menu items (look at
the bottom).  I appreciate the fact that there aren't lots of
underlines in those things that are clearly going to be links.  That said...

I agree with this.  If you want a de-emphasized indicator some kind of
pale solid underline would work.  I suppose the dashes are supposed to
work with any background color the user chooses?  Even a dotted
(alternating pixels) line would be better.
