Comment(by jane):

 Mike, come on. He said: "My feeling is that the power users and theme
 tweakers who edit Twenty Ten '''to craft a new site theme for
 themselves''' can simply add this to the list of other edits they make."
 You then replied: "Editing themes is bad (if it can be avoided.) You edit
 a theme, you own it; no upgrades for you mister!" Since he was, in fact,
 talking about people making their own new themes using 2010 as a base, not
 keeping 2010 as the theme and just overwriting things they don't like, I
 don't think your reply was appropriate. We don't want everyone to just use
 the default theme, we want them to take it and do cool things with it.

 The default theme is not meant to be all things to all people. We had a
 huge debate about this long ago and decided the default theme absolutely
 should not try to do address all use cases. It should be a simple BLOG
 theme, that's what was decided. If at some point we decide to pursue
 something like "core themes" and have a default specifically for CMS  or
 magazine use, etc, then it's a different ball game, but 2010 is supposed
 to be a blog theme, not a big old CMS theme. On purpose. If someone wants
 to use it as a base for a more CMS-oriented theme, awesome. That's not the
 task at hand, though. We need to stick to scope on this.
