 @nacin But if we want to use "heritability" like in OOP, for example this
 is not possible for the moment


 {{{#!php
 <?php

 class ParentTheme {
         function __construct(){
                 add_action('action_one', array($this, 'function_one'));
                 add_action('action_two', array($this, 'function_two'));
                 add_action('action_three', array($this,
 'function_three'));
         }

         function function_two() {
                 return 2;
         }
 }

 class ChildTheme extends ParentTheme {

         function function_two() {
                 return 9;
         }

 }
 }}}

 @greenshady Why not ? the child theme functions file is independent since
 its not related to parent function file, clearly because its called before
 it and the parent theme is developed before the child so clearly it will
 not counting on the child theme, so changing order will not make any
 difference.
