maybe during 4.6.
Not many modules actually call theme() during _init, which is where  
most of the theme switching happens
(hell, even in config files)

Multi theme switching is just plain broken in 4.7 due to the blocks/ 
region configuration.
Which is the reason the sections module hasn't been updated (for  
instance).

Hence, my suggested changes to the theme/block configuration  
(implementing a
new grouped configuration for theme/region/theme settings and  
switching between those instead)
