I don't want to open a can of worms, but that is controversial at best.
Encouraging people to build apps that follow the same look and feel as
gaia apps and not just build "web apps" is not very much in line with
the "open web" idea. Will these app look also good on desktop (hint:
gaia apps don't)? Will they look good on android? Most successful apps
have their own look and feel, which is part of their identity. The Gaia
look and feel is ... Gaia's identity. I kind of don't want to get random
apps appear like default ones also; and while there's nothing we can do
to prevent that to happen, we should not promote it either.
I'm very happy to see brick solve the problem of providing well designed
and efficient reusable components, but we should stay away from the look
and feel. Please don't help build a firefox OS silo. Let other people
contribute fun and crazy themes on top of brick instead!
