The problem would be that you most certainly will run into inconsistencies
with GNUstep's general look (menus especially) - especially when/if there
is gonna be something like a theme-able GNUstep. Essentially, you will
have a similar situation as in/under GNOME - unless of course GNUstep
and Interface (or whichever WM you're using) get their look from the same
source.

Question is, why not have it NeXT'ish and when/if GNUstep becomes
theme-able implement that 'feature' ?

Again, I'm talking consistency here, not whether or not to use/implement
themes.
