I'd love to see a project, within Debian or not, that works on "user
enhancement" packages. The goal would be to create various *optional*
packages that could be added to a stock debian system to give it some of
the sizzle that attracts some users to ubu, etc. This way, the Debian
purist could just ignore the glitz.
