1. No one proposed much, but pixmap themes (very bad idea to have too
many)

2. the current default is one clearlooks engine theme and the rest are
other light and fast engine themes so that those with older computers
have a choice? I asked about modernizing some of those engine themes and
no one said anything.

3. the intent is not to have 4 smooth engine themes but to give everyone
a choice of color schemes of one or 2 smooth engine themes.

4. I think there should be at least 2. One flat and Slider (new Glider).
After all, if Clearlooks had not come along, Smooth would be the new
default engine and Glider (Human Smooth engine?) would be the default.

5. Ubuntulooks is cairo and slow. Why do we need another 'enginelooks'
blue? Silicon is good though.
