Considering Unity IS GNOME, that name would just cause confusion. If such a thing were done I would think it should be called Shubuntu (for the shell). I don't know why it would need a major respin once Ubuntu goes to GNOME 3 for its next version, anyway. There's no Epubuntu for replacing

There would need to be some user testing, but I don't think people just use one full-screened app at a time. This, coupled with your own admission of exceptions to be made for application would I think cause more confusion and inconsistency than the current implementation. On the other note,
