Unfortunately they now forcefully bundle the Android SDK, which I have
no use for, but have to wait downloading 800MB..

It didn't do that for me. *shrug*

Unfortunately, Xamarin tries to force its own color scheme, and only
partially succeeds at it, leaving the program filled with
barely-readable "light-on-light" text and other text that appears partially-rendered kinda like "anti-aliasing gone terribly wrong" (not to mention lots of eye-searing plain-white backgrounds). I'm not a GTK
fan, but when I get a chance I'll have to try compiling the
plain-vanilla non-Xamarin MonoDevelop if there indeed isn't a pre-built
Windows version of it.

Nope. You can switch it so some darker schemes. I also switched it to some darker background because it also was too bright for me.
