Comment(by frumph):

 Just an example off the top of my head, this is no way reflects what the
 real code is.. but I was working on having for author pages have it change
 the name author/ to users/  or members/  so that I can create member pages
 from the author template.  Now mind you this works, however switching
 themes it keeps the /user/ portion of the rewrite while the rest reverts
 back after switching themes.  (bad idea for someone who just wants to
 check out the theme)   So I end up $wp_rewrite->init(); it back after
 switching themes in whatever theme i'm working on.

 So I was thinking, how does this effect generate_rewrite_rules and all of
 those others, apparently they too stay.   So having an init(); or
 flush_rules(); on switching themes doesn't sound like a bad idea.  Premium
 templete themes that have special rewrite rules associated with them will
 no longer bleed into other themes used.


 {{{
 if ($some_run_once_var) {
    add_action('init','cp_rewrite_author_to_user',5);
 }

 function cp_rewrite_author_to_user() {
         global $wp_rewrite;
         $wp_rewrite->author_base = 'user';
         $wp_rewrite->flush_rules();
 }
 }}}
