I was kicking around the idea a while back and suggested it here. I
was told that the next release of GTK would do that, so I probably
should hang out and wait for it. Since I don't have a business need
for such a theme, I decided to wait for a while to see what develops.

Of course, I'm not the final authority on such things and don't really
know the Gtk 2.0 timeframe. One of the other forum regulars may have
different information to provide.
