 In working on adding a newer version of a theme to an installation, it was
 noted that some functions rely on the theme name being unique. For
 instance, the wrong stylesheet path would be returned. The "Theme Name" in
 style.css should not be relied upon for uniqueness; only the directory can
 be counted upon because the filesystem prevents collisions.

 Proposed: refactor theme system to use dirname exclusively for referencing
 the active theme/stylesheet.
