Comment(by johnjamesjacoby):

 IMO the entire admin area is bad enough where the easiest way to
 accomplish this task would be to make a modular API and then work
 backwards into making each screen fit into it. Jane dones a great job at
 keeping the UI looking amazing and fresh but there are too many unique UI
 elements and too much custom CSS for specific screens to make this doable
 in 1 or even two release cycles.

 If anyone wanted to take this on, in theory you could even start this as a
 plugin replacement for wp-admin, just as a proof of concept. All of the
 functions are in place to restrict access, build settings pages, and
 dynamically grab template files for on screen display. I'm sure if
 something got started that worked well, more people would invest time into
 it.
