I think there are actually two separate problems (at least):
  1) There is a question over whether the new layout is the right place
    - personally I don't like it.

  2) It's done as a something special, rather than part of a theme.

If it was part of the new theme and it was just a matter of going to 
appearance and flipping to another theme or customising to the way
you like them then I haven't got a big problem with it, but forcing
people to have to attack gconf seems wrong.
