Comment:

 Run into a situation where we are using multiple themes on a single
 website. Basically each page can be assigned a custom theme.

 The issue I have run into is the only way to assign a menu to a new page
 with a 'custom theme' for that page, is to temporarily activate the new
 theme on the website, assign the menu to its location, and then reactivate
 the original theme.

 While this works, it obviously disrupts the entire system as I have to
 change the active theme for the site to make this change.

 I spent a bit of time looking, but I do not see anywhere that I can hook
 into to define the theme that I am working with on the menu admin page.

 As this is an unusual situation, I don't expect a lot of traction, but one
 thing that does come up A LOT is people hating that they loose their menu
 locations when changing themes. It might be nice to have the option of
 selecting a theme to apply the menus to in this new revamp or at least a
 hook, else I am afraid it could be a very long time before this would ever
 be addressed again.
