I wonder if you might be interested in getting involved in a "Gnubuntu" project.
See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-November/013261.html for
some vague details, as far as I know the project has not got off the ground at
all: you might be interested in making that. I don't know how set you are on
changing the themes.
