I tried the beta version yesterday and today, instant use on my hobbit!
I agree with the person a few posts up who said the wood border around the character portrait is a tad plain. I like it, but I wouldn't mind seeing it a smidge fancier.
I absolutely adore the bottom art, in all of its incarnations (even the very first one you posted a pic of, it's changed a lot!) I would prefer a bottom bar that did not have the options and bag buttons (just trimmed down to the art around the combat toggle and buttons) but I remember you said you weren't planning on making one like that, so I'll deal.
The backpack backgrounds seem very light, but not unusably so.
Overall, this is so well done that calling it a beta seems needlessly humble. Beautiful, beautiful work.
