I've actually done what you want to do, but with a private WP theme;
I'm actually going to be cutting that bit out and releasing it as a

Have em tag it as a slider category. Not as elegant, I know.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

Anything that gets off upon deactivating (or,
on changing) a theme is<br>
plugin territory.<br>
Just my thoughts.<br>
