I'm ok with packaging Aurora because it looks really good, though I
don't think that we should ship a theme because this engine is
unfortunately extremely slow (slower than pixmap-based themes), it has
few bugs with some applications (because of the workarounds it is
using) and is wasting a lot of space using high x/ythickness values
almost everywhere to get the big shadows around the widgets (imagine
the theme on a small screen like an eeepc).
