I'd rather strongly urge against removal of Mist... the stock
gnome-themes package has several crap, goofy, childish, ugly themes, and
mist is NOT one of them.  ;-)

I'd still think adding Smooth would be great (I have a more gray/neutral
variation I might post, which might be better for a default Smooth theme
than one of the more colourful variation), it's probably the most clean
and professional theme I've seen for GTK yet.
