Synaptic didn't stop recognizing Appearance settings. Synaptic has

Thanks for explaining that. It also explains what I'd been
seeing in some other applications.
GTK+ 3 support seems a bit -- uneven, right now. But you're
right; that's not a problem with Synaptic.
The only theme I found which explicitly says it supports both
GTK 2 and 3 was Oxygen. Others probably do, without saying so
[btw, I did install Testing from;
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/
instead of just changing my apt sources from `stable' to
`testing'. So this is about as up-to-date as it gets without
diving into `unstable'].
I guess things are in a state of transition. Will probably be
sorted out later, but for now I found a way to use separate
themes in GTK 2 and 3, respectively;

A bit convoluted, but it seems to work. Might come in handy if
anyone else is having similar trouble.
Cheers,
Patrick.
