This project may perhaps be obsoleted with snap, if it can be used to package Unity
Snap is a new technology from Canonical to distribute universal, sandboxed applications. I have not played around with "snapcrafting" but I suppose it should be possible to package the Unity graphical shell considering it has already been used to package the Linux Kernel. snapd is available in the AUR and it works.
The best scenario would lead to an entirely hassle-free unity, but with a few extra GBs of HD used.
A more realistic scenario would include a set Unity-integrated applications but the other applications in the system wouldn't be integrated, this could partially be overcome by installing Unity-like GTK themes and maybe still going with some overrides, at any pace it would be a much better solution than what we currently have.
