Ubuntu has always been extremely versatile and easy to adapt to every person's preferences. Though Unity offer little of this. The only elements which are themable are the elements which come from Gnome, the rest of the Unity interface is sticking out like never before:
* Quick lists look nothing like the default context menu.
* The Dash is consistent to the launcher but not the chosen theme.
* The launcher can look like a crippled narwhal when used together with different themes.
Since one of the goals of Ubuntu is to have a consistent user interface I think that this should be a higher priority. Especially the launcher should be more configurable.
The launcher is today aligned to the left side of the screen and because of the top panel and the launcher we remove two very important parts of third party applications UI design (Fitt's law). We read from left to right and from top to bottom so it doesn't make sense to have it like this by default if should follow the rule “Content is king”. Therefore I think it should be possible to align it to both the bottom and the right side of the screen.
Also providing a context menu to the launcher to easily access these options would be a great idea:
