Hey Justin,
Thanks for the idea - it seems there is a public sandbox setup already at meta.discourse.org - we'll see if that works out or not.
We did identify some usability issues with the core discourse UI I am not sure are addressable with a reskin. Not sure if a writeup of those is helpful upstream (they may be well aware.) The biggest issue is the combo search/drop down/breadcrumb selector thing.

I think a first big step would be to get the header design from the ticket working in a discourse theme. Seem doable?
Would a sandbox Discourse website for testing be helpful? The folks at Discourse have a generous free hosting option for Open Source projects. We could support 10-50 people there and give people admin rights to add and update themes independently.
I would be happy to get that set up and pass admin rights over to folks who want to update themes. I may be able to import a backup of discussions.fp.o to add "real" posts when testing out changes.
Let me know if that is useful!
