Four issues:

   1. The Bootstrap Basic and "Bootstrap Sunrise" is in fact just one theme
   with Basic as theme and Sunrise as a "skin" (implementation of Basic).
   Hence the location of the css for Sunrise under bootstrap/css/skins. Other
   than that, Sunrise uses the same template libraries as Basic. It is a false
   choice.
   2.  If we want to elevate Sunrise to theme status (i.e not just a skin),
   then we have to create separate template libraries for it. To qualify as a
   theme, it should have its own distinct widget implementation including
   headers, menus, forms, tables, pagination etc.
   3. The commits by Julien - r1683430 (header.ftl & appbar.ftl) affects
   both Basic and Sunrise. I have not seen patches for these and could
   therefore not do reviews.
   4. The approach with the Basic theme is to keep it as basic as possible,
   minimizing personal preferences with regards to look-and-feel and leaving
   this level of styling up to individual designers.

I have committed patches to deal with most if not all the issues flagged by
Adrian on 19 May 2015.  New issues have cropped up as a result of
r1683430.  To get this merge-ready my recommendation is that we revert
r1683430 which deals with header.ftl & appbar.ft.  These are minor issues
which relate mainly to personal preferences. If the changes introduced with
r1683430 is absolutely necessary, then I recommend that separate header.ftl
& appbar.ftl files are created and that themeResources in "Sunrise" point
to locations where the new files reside.

Regards

Gavin
