I do understand, but I think the PC market would be a good proposition, there is no Linux distro got it right, sometimes you have a bad UI, sometimes a bad UX. You can start by using some of them as a base but focusing on the UI, like you are doing with the phone. Microsoft once mention that the XP migration was a 12B dollar market. It make sense a well organized institution like Mozilla backing a project like this, I think. It also make much easy to people try to use, you get a USB install and use, what will may attract more developers. Good luck.
