patch from Fedora - default thene - need review

Dont know to is actually needed this patch (it is disabled in ebuild), but
there maybe good ideas - dont provide default theme to new user - the default
is too ugly. but not default - will required to have installed some artwork
package..

Ideas?

I have an idea..please stop posting every patch you come across weather it makes sense or not and then leaving no explanation except "makes things more fast and comfortable". We know that other distros ship different patches for gnome components, but gentoo isn't some random universal patch repository where everything gets dumped. 

Security or serious bug fixes are one thing..but changing the default theme is hardly something we are worried about. If these are great patches then they will be included upstream and will be in the next release.
