Agreed.

I don't really see why we should spend any time on this, at least not now.
There are other more pressing issues that should be taken care of.

Subject: [habari-dev] Re: Why are admin and installer still distinct from
themes?


I think this discussion is inappropriate at this time.

By allowing easy user-supplied admin themes we'd be encouraging a 
situation where users could quite easily damage their overall install in 
many ways, including making their admin inaccessible or causing discrete 
components of the admin to fail.

In addition, nearly the entire admin "theme" relies on specific methods 
with the adminhandler, the analog for the admin theme's theme.php. 
Writing any supplemental admin theme would likely involve rewriting a 
significant and impractical amount of the handler code.

There are so many other things to do right now to bring Habari into a 
useful state with the admin that we have, I simply don't see any 
compelling reason to make this change now, or even provide the rudiments 
for it.  It certainly doesn't simplify any other task currently in 
queue.  Is there some latent user request for this?
