Just make the task "Change the appearance of your windows to theme [x]."
Yeah, it's artificial, but the object is to see where they try to look
first. Finding the way to change just ONE window (dunno why they'd need
this; maybe as a test) is pretty easy; finding the place in the huge gnome
settings panel to change the default look for ALL windows takes more work.
