Re: [PROPOSAL] Keel look and feel

+ 1 to the general proposal, and echo the exact same concerns: Keel is a

business, not Keel, needs to define the graphics, visuals, branding.

We are quite proud of our use of Keel, but would not wish to give our
competion the heads up on how accomplish what we do.
