Comment(by nacin):

 Possible better way of implementing this: We should instead register theme
 support for "custom-header-uploads" by default, and allow the theme to
 remove said theme support as a way to enable this.

 Replying to [comment:1 ericmann]:
 > Honestly, if a theme doesn't want to support the uploading of custom
 headers, that's up to the theme ... why does this patch need to be in
 core?  I don't see the point.

 Because the theme would still want the ability for registered headers to
 be chosen. Currently the custom-header UI won't support that.

 I see use cases here for sure. Not a good idea for a distributed theme,
 but rather in instances where a user on a site might be allowed to
 edit_theme_options but should not be allowed to modify anything beyond
 what the admins have specifically set up for the site.
