I'm not a fan of the transparency, but it does have the benefit of allowing you to easily customise your menubar look. I always thought the 10.4 menubar was way too bright for a permanent element. My opinion, the 10.5 menubar with black behind it gives you a solid-looking menubar with a slight gradient, and a shade of light grey that almost perfectly matches the window colors in 10.5. I've been using LeoColorBar to insert a menubar-sized strip of black at the top of the current desktop image.
