Bug Description
When logging in to Ubuntu the Ambiance and Radiance (and other themes) randomly revert to Gnome default.
Just accessing Appearence settings results in partial recovery (in my case the panels - with Nautilus keeping the wrong theme), but when logging in again, the problem starts anew.

I want to apologize for filing this bug report again if the problem is indeed being currently looked at. But no activity regarding the first bug report has some of us worried, because this is a pretty severe problem.

I would like to add my consternation about this bug. It is getting bad enough for me that I am thinking of dumping Ubuntu Maverick all together. Even worse, no developers seem the slightest bit interested, which is concerning.
