This sounds like a very large stylistic change and isn't something I can see happening any time in the near future. I don't see the amount of horizontal bars as a serious deterrent to viewing, they take up only half of a 1080p page view. Whether or not it's "good" or "bad" design doesn't really matter to me, it's functional. There are much more pressing things currently, such as improving the plugin load order sorting UX (and fixing the issues with the drag and drop becoming slow as balls when there are too many mods/plugins present).
The usage of a large number of full-width horizontal sections also isn't necessarily uncommon. Large parts of Mod Picker's UX were inspired by PCPartPicker, and the Build Guides on their site have a similar "issue" with "content" starting halfway down the page.
Two thirds of the mod list page are currently occupied by headers/bars. It would be preferable to have a more compact design to increase productivity.
Currently there are 6 bars:
