[theme-reviewers] Would this be an issue?

[Edward Caissie]

@Mel -

Your idea seems fine to me. I would suggest including a "readme"
explaining the recommended use of the plugin; and, if known, any
concerns end-users may have when not using the plugin.

I'm looking forward to seeing this Theme, too.

Obviously some features (such as a Featured Products slider for the front page) will not be available and there will be warnings displayed in the Admin area. I also think I've managed to get the theme to degrade gracefully so that it will not present any problems for non-shop site owners.

We're also a little concerned about the lack of effective support for the (commercial) eStore theme - the only theme currently available for eShop users. The new theme (Emporium) is intended to try and address some of these problems as well as provide a free, supported (and actively maintained) alternative.
