Just.
Do.
It.

It might even be successful! We'll be in a better world with a new
distro out there satisfying needs not satisfied anymore by Debian!

By all means, transform this energy into action and create the free
software environment that you need. It will be more work than whining on
lists, sure, but that's the only way to make the change fitting your
hopes eventually happen.

Before embarking on a major project, it is generally advisable to understand:
- are there less difficult alternatives?
- is there enough demand?
- is there enough support to get it done?
- is it necessary (in this case, what are the changes of the pending GR mitigating the problem, or of otherwise avoiding the necessity of a major amount of effort)?

So, in other words, bugger off.
