The Moomex theme is too much Vista from my point of view. I think it's not
Ubuntu's goal to imitate another OS. We have to make something different, an
own style. Your screenshot looks ok, but not very progressive. Looks still
like ye olde Gtk look...If we want to make something new, something
different, I doubt that this is the right direction.


One more proposal :)
