Comment (by dd32):

 > Note there are other themes from other places using the same name, but I
 don't know what will happen of one of those is installed and their version
 is less than 1.5.0 - I suspect they will also get overwritten by the couch
 theme

 Yes, If the theme name is not unique, there is the case that a .org hosted
 theme will cause a update notice.

 It's been covered in many places before, for example, recently the theme-
 reviewers list had this thread: http://lists.wordpress.org/pipermail
 /theme-reviewers/2011-July/006266.html (and the followup by Otto:
 http://lists.wordpress.org/pipermail/theme-
 reviewers/2011-July/006272.html)
