You're right. This sentence really didn't help to clear things up. I've changed that bit of the documentation to better work out the different themes ( http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.8/ui_theming#appearances ). Additionally, I re-read the whole page and changed some bits to better differ the themes.

Yes, the naming is a little confusing at first. Maybe we should think the names over to clear things up. > Anyways -- the ui_theming page is a huge help! > I'm very happy that you all are making working on the 0.8 docs such a > priority, as the entire project would be greatly diminished without > them, which would be a massive shame.
