Web interface themes, anyone?

Hi!

Just want to find out if there's any chance (or already a possibiliy?) of changing Calibre server's web interface design. I just feel a disparity between the highly customisable and polished program interface and rather lackluster web library, and think that it would really add to user experience and satisfaction(ok just eyecandy..), as well as ease-of-use(not that the present interface is bad in this aspect, but new features and advancing ergonomics never hurt, right?). Any thoughts, anyone, or I'm just missing something important here(like this sort of thing being solved)?

The content server is in the process of being redesigned. If you run calibre from source, you can play with it, like this

calibre-debug --new-server -- --auto-reload /path/to/calibre/library/folder
