Forgot to add: So I think the flat design trend has nothing to do with enlightenment, it's just a highly convenient choice for an anti-Apple crowd and on platforms where pixel precision is difficult.
Also, it's important to not lump skeuomorphism in with realistically lit UI (or even UI with textures and gradients). They're not the same thing.
