[wp-hackers] Theme and Plugin Integration

[Robert Deaton]

The feature that I want is the ability to run things that could only be run 
as plugins, not just special function calls. There are some limits to what 
you can do by the time it gets to the theming system. You also couldn't add 
configuration menus in the admin without being able to hook in earlier than 
themes
