It may not be functionality related, but that "eye candy" is actually  
very important ( WAF etc.. ) and brings products into the mass  
consumption realm.  I can think of many products that are VERY popular  
that have great GUI/eye candy and not the functionality.
I would certainly encourage more resources on look and feel as it will  
be that effort that brings Myth to the next level.

Just my 5 or so cents.
