 Thanks for looking.
 However, the main themes page is not fully accessible by screen readers -
 just tested with JAWS 14. The divs get focus alright because of the
 `tabindex="0"` and the theme reads out Theme Details but there is nothing
 else to identify which theme currently has focus. There needs to be some
 kind of label for screen readers to read out - suggest try `aria-label
 ="theme-name"` on the div that gets the `tabindex="0"`. Or alternatively
 stuff the Theme Details string with the theme name - hidden from sighted
 users.
