For me Squeak is so many things, not just a windowing gui, so I quit
thinking about look of it as soon as I had learned enough
to start changing it. I think lot's of people see it the same way,
Squeak is more a way of thinking and a language than a look.
On the other side I think a good look would attract people as
any good looking stuff do:-)
As soon as the modules stuff gets integrated into all the major
tools, it may become easier to maintain a look package.
