 Theme preview pain (pun intended) has never represented what a theme can
 do. It is a colossal waste of resources.

 Over the years, we have as theme reviewers have spent much time defending
 abuse of the preview pane by authors who just want to have their themes
 show what their themes can really do.

 I think a plugin type repo with multiple screenshots would be much better.
