Hmm...perhaps there is another contest or "election" in the making?
 
How about?:

I'm the one to blame and I fully agree with you. It's just so
difficult to find something that sounds very nice. :)
The only alternatives I could come up with were:
Haiku - it just works
Haiku - easy, fast, productive
None of them represents Haiku's current status (maybe: "Haiku - make
it work" :) and they don't sound very good.

I hope that Jorge will find something much better. Any ideas?

How 'bout simply "Haiku OS" - I mean that's what most people are looking for here.

I would keep any subsequent verbiage down to only one or two words - that should well be enough:

Haiku OS - simplicity

Haiku OS - eloquent

Haiku OS - pure freedom

Or even:
Haiku OS - not evil (since that's the trendy, overrated slogan these days)
