This sort of idea betrays the geek atmosphere that pervades FreeBSD and
many other open-source efforts. It might please geeks installing the
OS, but it only makes it look like a toy to people who are installing it
for serious use. Nobody sitting in a machine room in front of a rack of
servers is going to care anything about "skins."
