Agreement
I would agree with the general consensus. I also think the colour of the jacket is as significant as whether it is mesh or not. I took a Rev'it Desert textile jacket to Morocco in September. It rained once heavily but I was still glad not to have the waterproof liner as I didn't need it at all heading south.
My esteemed travelling companion took an alpinestars mesh jacket and I think he'd agree that he wouldn't have changed his mind in hindsight either. His jacket was black though so if you intend on spending any amount of time at a standstill you will get very hot.
