Comment 8 for bug 934270

So it seems we don't have much choice here about the UI switch itself anyway, so this part is approved. The part that is missing is how to integrate it: If you want it on the CDs, we need to find something else large to drop (like Python 3) and there needs to be work to split PyQt (which needs coordination with the Kubuntu and Debian people, otherwise we'll suddenly get a huge packaging delta which we'd need to maintain). If it's enough to have the U1 installer on the CDs, then this isn't a prerequisite and you can go ahead with this right now.
