 Currently, a user can do the following:
 {{{
 $theme   = wp_get_theme();
 $version = $theme->Version;
 $name    = $theme->Name;
 $author  = $theme->Author;
 $version = $theme->Version;
 }}}

 So, when I tried to get the other data in the same method, I was getting
 nothing. However, to get the other data, one must do this:
 {{{
 $theme->{'Author URI'}; // per Codex;
 $theme->get( 'AuthorURI' ); // $theme->AuthorURI doesn't work
 $theme->get( 'ThemeURI' ); // $theme->ThemeURI & $theme->{'Theme URI'};
 doesn't work
 $theme->get( 'TextDomain' ); // $theme->TextDomain & $theme->{'Text
 Domain'}; doesn't work
 }}}

 get() is a great method to get the other data; however, shouldn't we make
 this consistent for developers?
