Comment(by hakre):

 I looked into this a bit more. The naming for theme/template/stylesheet
 related sutff are more simple/consistent than I first thought:

  1. theme (see ''current_theme'' options, example: {{{"WordPress
 Classic"}}})
  2. template (see ''template'' option, example: {{{"classic"}}}, the
 actual string based identifier for ''1.) theme'' .)
  3. stylesheet (see ''stylesheet'' option, example: {{{"classic"}}}, for a
 definition what a stylesheet is, please see function get_stylesheet(),
 Quote: ''"the template name and the stylesheet name are going to be the
 same for most cases"'')

 So I wonder where actually the reporter sees confusing function names. It
 would be good to name those so that a fix can be provided. I see the
 problem here that we only think function names are mixed up, infact they
 are not. The terms child/parent -theme might be new but the concept is
 not, right?
