Which is why i would prefer if we did away with themename_something  
and just moved to template_something, and possibly even
engine_something.

All themes (.theme files even) would become inherently copy-able. The  
only thing we lose is not being able to load more
than one at a time. I think we can do this, but we need to introduce  
meta-data first. (ie: a 'config' file where you specify things like
'features' and 'regions', or in the case of template engines, a regex  
to use for finding templates)
