For me the presence of the organisations name in green letters emphasizes the difference. (Besides the green/grey lock difference alone is small enough to miss)

The UI choice i don't like is having a hazard sign for secure websites with mixed active content blocked . Hazard sign implies some hazard exists - but in this case the hazard has been averted, so why show a hazard sign still?

The way I see it, the browser actively blocked a hazardous action. The site continues to be hazardous, and another browser might not properly block the action in question. As long as the site is trying to do hazardous things, it should be considered as such (and warned against).
