I obviously can't speak for the desktop or design teams, but in
general, I think that this proposal is sound. I've always found it odd
that what the desktop team does is not subject to the same review that
we put any other spin through - I fail to see how they are
important/different/whatever from the rest of the spins that we
produce. Same sentiment goes for the KDE spin.
