All such preferences should be user/account-based, not installation- based.

I like the idea of letting the user determine which of the 'human element' theme variations is used. But instead of asking the user when they first login, what if the option is available after installation. That way the login screen itself could be different based on the theme choice...

fire, water etc. style gdm themes?

Personally, I'm loving the element idea as soon as I read it. It would really set ubuntu apart in terms of looks with pretty much every other OS out there.

Actually, you make a very good point. Ubuntu should get in the habit of innovating UI that MS/Apple are compelled to copy. Mac's Dashboard and later Vista's Sideshow are essentially stolen ideas from the GNOME/KDE communities.

Firefox 3 has recently introduced a feature that I'm certain will be copied by Safari and IE in the near future: the 'find as you type' history search integrated into the URL bar.
