Well, you say you needed a faster GTK engine than ClearLooks? Well, I 
found this pretty good one called RezLooks, he basically stripped out 
all the parts from ClearLooks he didn't like (such as rounded corners

stripping (ClearLooks from CVS is the new Cairo one, in which 
Ubuntulooks is based off), so that might be pretty good!

This might be a good idea for inclusion, maybe with a recolored version 
of the Human theme with support for this engine? Since for some reason 
you were debating over Mist or Smooth or something like that...

May be faster than clearlooks-cairo but it's noticably slower than the others, because it's cairo. It doesn't look good and complete, because it's a mix/mash of flat and gradient. I like where it is going, if it continues to go in the direction of the new buttons and the rest of widgets follow, but right now it is too new, too imature, and going to go through a lot of changes before it is complete, provided the author continues to work on it. It will be a nice gtk engine addition someday, if the project moves forward. It's not even a 'looks' anymore. I wish he released the square clearlooks-cairo hack as Rezlooks and made this independent from 'name_looks' since it has no resemblance.
