What I would like is to avoid discussion "implementation" and "sane bases" and "building on". All that can come later, and will come, and will be good. My agenda is moving focus of discussion to what is missing from core. *I think* that a "good looking" theme is missing, something that puts Drupal's on a "sexiness" par with Joomla.
You are putting the cart before the horse. Noone can build a pretty theme, it's too difficult, unless you are Steven Wittens (he bud!) who is a PHP Gawd along with his massive knowledge of the drupal theming systems. Someone like myself, who knows CSS and can do graphics is at a disadvantage. That is why we need the base theme so we can all simply start hanging pretty stuff on skeletons.
Hmm, agree to disagree? :-)
