This email started as a suggestion to replace a-mego by the new flat-dark theme.
The two themes are very similar but the new flat-dark simply looks a
lot better imho.
If someone asks for it back, we can put the old a-mego theme in a
discontinued repository; it should be easy to install.

I'm putting this out there because as a lightweight DE, I don't think
we should have a huge lxqt-common, especially if separate themes are
easy to install. I see the following core themes fitting well in it by
default:
 - The classic "Razor" theme (light)
 - The dark version of the razor theme (ambiance)
 - A clear flat theme (currently flat, but it is ugly as sin)
 - A dark flat theme (flat-dark)
 - The plasma-next theme for the people who love KDE but not enough to use it
 - Hopefully-One-Day: A concrete LXQt theme of our own, which would
become default over razor-light

I'm indeed suggesting we delete "green" because honestly all it is is
a wallpaper. I don't think we should decouple wallpapers from themes,
see issue 156: https://github.com/lxde/lxde-qt/issues/156

This would put the current total themes we ship to 5, to be bumped to
6 or maybe higher if we get high quality submissions. I'm against
shipping themes that look too similar as it's just providing
meaningless options.
