Kith Intrepid is an interesting concept, but that's the problem - it's a concept. It has not developed beyond the mockup stage, and the actual mockups focus more on what would be coded in Metacity rather than GTK! We would need to see a sample application with actual widgets visible such as "The Widget Factory" to really know the style and intent of "Kith". As for the buttons at the bottom of windows - it's not possible with GTK, as that area is reserved in applications (GtkStatusbar). This is another mockup that requires a major architectural change to GTK (and many applications) - and while it may be worth persuing, it's not likely to happen. Having said all that, I somewhat like the colour scheme :).
