if i try "unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac", it looks a WEE bit better, but doesn't do the job:

how do i get what i want? I think it may be related to "brushed metal" look but that's been removed? (using latest Qt)

so i guess the answer is yes, same exact "tint" or color, yes.

i thought that's what unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac did? but apparently not any more?

I am not sure to follow you. Do you want to have the window title bar to have the same tint as your application window content ?

Is this a bug?

unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac

sigh. why remove the "brushed metal" selector when the OS still supports it, even if deprecated?

unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac : bool
This property holds whether the window uses the unified title and toolbar look on OS X.
Note that the Qt 5 implementation has several limitations compared to Qt 4:
Use in windows with OpenGL content is not supported. This includes QGLWidget and QOpenGLWidget.
Using dockable or movable toolbars may result in painting errors and is not recommended
This property was introduced in Qt 5.2.
Access functions:

bool 
unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac() const
void 
setUnifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac(bool set)

[EDIT]

if i try "unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac", it looks a WEE bit better, but doesn't do the job:

Sorry i missed that ...
