I'll bite. Why is it a problem ?
Well, applying a theme specifically to integrate with the GNOME
environment would (pretty much by definition) mean that it would not
cleanly fit into a KDE, XFCE, LXDE, etc. environment if they were
launched from GDM. I know from history that these groups tend to get
upset when we make changes that negatively impacts them without
considering their needs as well.
