I found some screenshots from "Android L's" Gmail app which I attach here.

That one looks to be Gmail. The news are from end of June.

The "regular" Email in Android 5.0 doesn't want to run at all. Crashes immediately after adding an account.

But enough to notice that it's yellow, not cyan.

Hey look what I found on them Interwebs...

Well without bottom action things become more complex.
Like select all, read unread etc, 
We have to do more steps to do all these right?
Or we can  say swiping will be more usable after this..  But for option like select all and mark as read, delete etc how will it work.??
I appreciate these festiv colour themes and thanks for Mr kostya for this. but this ONE BIG BUTTON IS HORRIBLE as for usage purpose.

Well as Mr kostya posted google closed his bug report so we will have to make our mind for this ONE BIG button or there is other way out?

Let's consider the message list screen.

"New message" can float.

Refresh and search can be icons in the top bar (yes, there is pull to refresh, but it's nice to have a button too, I think).

This leaves "select all" -- and I've been thinking about a gesture, a vertical swipe like pull to refresh, but on the left side, over the contact images / checkboxes.

I'll *have* to do the floating button, but will be able to make it optional on Android 4.0 - 4.4 (keeping the current "icon bar on the bottom").
