The 2007 road map for the Ubuntu Linux operating system includes continuing its focus on the desktop, paying more attention to the server and garnering additional corporate support. Speaking at Ubuntu user conference UbuCon at Google's New York complex on Feb. 16, Steve George, director of support and services at Canonical, said, "The view from the Ubuntu side is that Microsoft has too much of the market. We're going to continue rolling out and making Ubuntu easy to use on the desktop and we'll add increased focus on the server this year."

I understand your vision, but for the better or the worse, Linux isn't going that way. Distributions are currently filling the gap by providing one and only one solution for every problem (the user-centric distros, that is). The whole of Linux isn't; they are going for diversity. I don't see that changing soon.
If you have the motivation, I suggest promoting a distribution that meets your vision. Choose one distro wisely, then do what you can do to make them reach your (and their) goals: take part in discussion about which application should be "the one" to solve a problem. Help them become popular. And so on.
