Comment (by johnbillion):

 There's no point in having a file such as `generic-bbpress.php` because
 that's not generic. In this case, the theme would use whatever templating
 hierarchy bbPress provides. The idea of the `generic.php` is so a theme
 can provide a ''generic'' template for plugins which it doesn't natively
 support.

 +1 on falling back to `index.php`. My code above probably doesn't work as
 expected, it was just to get the idea down.
