The notification themes specifically.

Yup, I know ;-)

Aah, I read something about that at gnome planet but didn't know where
to actually find it. In the appearance capplet it would be probably
better off. As about the gnome-shell -- I'm still a bit sceptic whether
it's a step a forward or just a hindrance (I haven't tried it myself yet
and available screen-casts are suggesting the later...), but to stay on
topic, I don't like the idea of notify bubbles being inthemable, or am I
misunderstanding and the bubbles will be themable as a part of some
bigger component?
