I think common text domain for multiple themes should be fine,
especially when we use drop-in framework for our themes.

There are only a few translations that are specific to the theme itself. If we follow this rule then we have to do exactly the same translations over and over again which is not best for DRY programming and especially not good for our users as updating all the different translations will be very difficult, time consuming and probably not provide the best translations we possible can.

I mean from a php point of view you cannot have 2 themes running at the same time so our themes will not conflict with each other and no one else should use our text domain in their plugins so there should be no conflict there either.
