 To install a theme or a plugin from outside of WordPress site you need to
 download the theme/plugin and then upload to your website... this takes
 some time but this process can be done faster if we will add some new
 features to the core...

 The method will be like this: on your website you get a code then this
 code you can put in a external website form where you would like to
 download the theme or the plugin, so the zip file will be downloaded and
 installed right away automatically. (like sync in Firefox)

 In the code there will be the your site url and nonce password for secure
 install, the code will be encrypted.

 of course there can be some security problems but this method will not be
 as bad as current download/upload to your site.
