 Alright, I've got other modifications locally to that i believe, So:

 > attachment 8652.3.diff added

 Thats nothing special.. I'll outline what i was wanting to achieve with
 the UI here:

 The user being able to select a set of tags (Much like the "Special" tags
 on .org, 1, 2, 3 column, widget ready, etc.). The API would then return a
 list of themes with those tags.

 Optionally, It could allow for a custom tag to be included, or a search
 term. But in reality, at present, with the limited number of themes which
 are returned from these current tags, Search/custom tags can be ignored
 for now IMO (Maybe introduce them later on or something)

 The Themes page, would be very much like the current themes, The top would
 allow the selection of the themes, And the section below would ajax-load
 the themes (With a normal HTTP Post fallback for everything). The Theme
 blocks in the lower section would be just images of the theme (Possibly
 with name showing through), Upon hover, it'd show the description as well
 as the links or something.. Clicking the theme would open a plugin-
 information-like dialogue (but for themes obviously), with all the usual
 info..  etc.
