Well, I don't see why that can't happen.
Another way would be when a person is submitting a GNOME theme, they could be
asked "Name some Window Manager themes that suit the look and feel of this GNOME
theme" and they have to provide links to the various .t.o page. Otherwise the
theme doesn't get added.
