This is a wonderful idea and could succeed if the creator could rally the right devs and users. What it really needs is Ubuntu tier branding and UX work. This has been a rarity in the Linux desktop space.

I am hopeful SteamOS will bring us something very similar.

That means somebody paying for the work. Designers and UX specialists don't care about free work like many programmers do.

Yeah Blender might be a good model here.
