@Otto<div>Your suggestions are all great and I personally prefer tabs over subpages. One reason is switching between tabs is easier (and faster)</div><div><br></div><div>But talking in general, I feel choice should be given to theme-developers. </div>

</div>Ideally, it would still have just one Theme Options page under<br>
appearance, and then use tabs or something else on its own page to<br>
separate the options out.<br>
<br>
Realistically, I'd say a theme with that many options is too complex<br>
to begin with. Themes should be about the look of the site, not crazy<br>
functionality. Break the functionality parts out into plugins that go<br>
along with the theme or something like that.<br>
