Thank you for taking the time to work on this proposal and help to
make Ubuntu and GNOME better.

I don't believe the Ubuntu Desktop Team is interested at this time in
making significant changes from GNOME. So if you want this change in
Ubuntu, you should talk to the GNOME Design team.

Contributing to Design is a bit like contributing elsewhere in open
source development. Smaller changes are easier to get accepted at
first. And after all the criticism GNOME 3 received, the GNOME
Developers and Designers are much more cautious about making big
changes these days.

Having a working prototype is a nice idea but it's not necessarily
required. I don't know of anyone here that is really working on
developing GNOME Shell extensions though.

Thanks,
