The problem of gtk+ theming is a difficult issue. Of course, you can select one theme for gtk+ 2 and the other one for gtk+ 3 in the config tool. However, you can not have preview for both of them because gtk+ 2 and 3 cannot be used in the same program. Second, both gtk+ 2 and 3 read the theme config from Xsettings and they use the same value. So, it's not really possible to set different themes to them with Xsettings daemon. The only possible way is removing xsettings daemon and set the config values in the ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and ~/.config/gtk3/settings.ini files respectively. So we have to disable the Gtk/ThemeName key in lxsession and set the values in the config files instead. This does not solve the lack of preview, though.
