Hi Hans:

It changes the cosmetic defaults but that should have no impact core design,
intent or performance. They are little more than "Window dressing".

It fact such "modifications" might be encouraged especially if the results
are an acceptance into the business world which the current interface has so
far discouraged...

This is useful to someone who is forced to use Win8 now. But, serious
question, doesn't messing with the defaults like this lead to a messy
system? It has the potential to make the system like stable and, whenever
Microsoft pushes out an update (minor or major, like a service pack), it
could also lead to breakage?
