Reintroduce camouflage in Tails

Tails documentation used to read “if you are using a computer in public you may want to avoid attracting unwanted attention by changing the way Tails looks into something that resembles Microsoft Windows 8.” This is what we call the “Windows camouflage”.

This mode has been removed from Tails because of lack of maintenance. If you are interested to propose a branch that reintroduces the camouflage, that would be awesome. Please note that it’s not only about proposing a prototype with screenshots, but also integration in Tails code. We’ll be happy to provide guidelines and help, but will not do the work ourselves.
