I'd agree but only if we remove the new notion of Color Theme and instead replace it with a notion of Skin Theme (which is more generic and better IMO since anything that can be customized should be in a theme, it's not just colors). We should also take the occasion to list other stuff that should be customizable in a Skin Theme, if any (even if we only implement them in the future). If we don't find anything else other than the logo maybe we could keep the ColorTheme name (even though it's wrong). If we find other areas we should probably find a migration path from ColorTheme to SkinTheme.
