Re: Proposal: Theme manager UI (#326070)

[Rodney Dawes <dobey novell com>]

I'll have to look at it later. I don't think the theme manager is overly
complex though. Most of things to make it better are generally small. It
works ok, and serves its purpose. It's actually quite simpler than most
theme configuration interfaces out there.

One thing to note though, is that your mock-up provided in the bug
completely ignores the "Desktop Theme" concept, which is what the
theme manager is centered around. Are you suggesting the changes only
for the dialog you get after clicking "Details"?
