[PROPOSAL] Keel look and feel

All,

Here's something I have been running into.  I use the Keel app-register, 
app-crud, app-navigate apps a lot in my own deployed projects.   
However, I prefer to not have the Keel logo, and the Keel font, colors, 
etc.  The solution so far has been for me to copy the relevant JSPs, and 
to modify them as needed to fit a project's look & feel.  This makes it 
really a pain to keep the files synchronized, not to mention the fact 
that the problem is multiplied since every project now has it's own copy.

Here's what I'd like to do.

- Remove all the Keel logo's from the JSPs
- Remove all hard-coded font sizes, colors, etc. and rely on CSS only
- Make the app-navigate menu sizes, positions, fonts configuration based 
(hardcoded currently)
- Create a app-personality (no code, only decorator JSPs and CSS), which 
will use/depend-on app-sitemesh, which will add back the Keel logo and 
colors via CSS
- If anyone wants to change the look and feel, simply replace 
app-personality with a custom personality app with your own decorators 
and CSS
- If anyone wants to use Tiles with their Struts app., simply don't 
include app-personality

What do you all think about this?
