If their is differents and nice themes by default, Ubuntu can havec lot of new users (who think Human look old).

Whiteboard
A single theme never is good for everybody: too dark, too light, too small or something. That's why the possibility for a user to select a desktop theme on the first start/logon would be useful. This should be done already in the start of a live-cd, for the best possible first impression. The installer should set the selected theme as default in the installed system, too.
This shouldn't be too hard to implement, just start gnome-appearanc
