I think that it is a good idea.

Some comments:

I haven't used FreeCurve, but I see no reason to use that rather than 
starting with the actual BlueCurve SRPM & RPM (which I installed it from).

Due to RedHat's agenda, they removed the 'Sticky' button from the window 
decoration.  This should be restored.

When I built BlueCurve from source, there were a lot (a LOT!!) of 
compiler warnings.  If you are going to be the maintainer, the first 
thing to do is CLEAN UP the code, it is a MESS.  Probably severely 
hacked from Keramik or others.
