There was already quite a lot of work done in this precise direction
during the Plone Conference 2007 Theme sprint.

accessibility and more stuff where considered, also. I don't
particulary like the final (uncomplete) design of Capri Theme which
is, obviously, at least two years old now, but there are work,
experience and ideas there.
I'd be glad to help for this new theme; I asked to the developers list
already, a few months ago, but did not get any feedback.
Cheers,
Francesco.

My only concern about calling Hanno's incremental change list 4.0 is
that we don't suffer from big-number expectation syndrome.
This is the biggest risk I guess, a major release with just a minor
set of visible (UI) improvements, will bring bad publicity.
I agree — this is the biggest risk in terms of calling it 4.0
instead of 3.5. The consensus to call the 2009 release 4.0 makes
sense to me — so +1 on that decision.
One way to mitigate this — and make Plone seem a bit more modern
along the way — could be to apply the new typography/theme that I'm
currently applying to trunk. This is essentially the typography from
the plone.org redesign along with a color-neutral design for the
navigation and other UI elements. The goal is to make something that
you can put the company logo on, and it looks relatively decent, no
matter what your company colors are.
This would make 4.0 seem "fresh" out of the box, make it look like
an application from 2009, and let us ship with considerably more
efficient/smaller CSS files.
The risk would be that we need to do some IE6 testing on it, but
that might not be a bad thing, since we know much more about IE6
workarounds at this point than we did when the original CSS was
written.
