I don't think this is either practical or desirable. To have a single
change cause ripples across all FxOS apps would be really really difficult
to manage. Talk about strange magic from a distance! Plus we are moving
away from a monolithic "Gaia app". *I do agree we need a simple opt-in way
to buy into consistent look and feel and control interactions*. And a way
to pick up bug fixes or updates from shared components without
simultaneously breaking unrelated stuff - see Jim's note about font-size
changes. But I would like to steer us away from the notion of a
one-size-fits-all UI toolkit. It always ends in tears. Apologies if I'm
over simplifying or mis-characterizing here, I just want to offer the
counter-argument.
