[theme-reviewers] Child themes discussion

[Justin Tadlock]

No, that'd probably break some stuff.  "Stylesheet" and "template" refer 
to very specific directories.  "Stylesheet" refers to the directory with 
the stylesheet in it (the currently active theme).  And, "template" 
refers to the directory with the templates (the parent theme).

It's not really complex stuff.

If anything, WP could use a get_theme_file() (example name) for getting 
theme files with the URI rather than the path.
