Comment 84 for bug 668415

I have an idea how to solve this mess: KDE Plasma. I am starting my education on "Applied Informatics" this year. I need a pastime other than computer games. My thought: Why not to try to port Unity to KDE environment? The plasma interface has a very nice feature - lock-down of interface, so it cannot be customized, until unlocked. This single feature divides the interface into two very different modes: complete and zero customizability. When locked by default, the UX team can assume the "noob users" (no disrespect meant - just a quick phrase) won't destroy the plasma desktop by accident, yet the "power users" will have tools not available for traditional GNOME/Compiz desktop. But for this to happen, I would need to have support in form of all the "art and design". I don't want to make the stuff from scratch - I want to do a port, which means I would need to have all the stuff like proper gradients for panels, how thick the panels should be, etc. It would take a lot of time, I would need to learn a lot of stuff, but the effect is worthy. The KDE desktop is the single thing I miss in the "vanilla" Ubuntu.
