Comment:

 I think the specific issue of not being able to preview themes immediately
 after changing WordPress's home option is fixed as of the new Theme
 Customizer.

 Options:
 1. Close as fixed.
 2. Call `wp_clear_auth_cookie()` and `wp_set_auth_cookie()` whenever the
 home option changes.  That would fix this issue at its root and probably
 fix other similar annoyances.

 Option 1 is easy :)

 Option 2 is hard because we know what the old values of `COOKIEPATH`,
 `SITECOOKIEPATH`, etc. are, we don't what the new ones should be.  We can
 calculate them from the new values of the home, etc. options, but a site
 could have any of these constants hardcoded, in which case calculating
 them from the options is probably wrong.
