How can this codename be anything but AWESOME! I think I would be disappointed if it was not named this

Talk about going off the rails.

So are there any distros out there that actually care about the user experience?

Give Fedora a try. Fedora has releases roughly every six months like Ubuntu but it more closely follows GNOME upstream. Rather than going their own way like Canonical with Mir, Fedora is working with the broader free software community to complete the few missing pieces of Wayland. (GNOME on Wayland is fairly solid on Fedora 23 and supposedly even better with Fedora 24).

Fedora is available in desktop ("workstation"), server, and cloud flavors.
