 Today I uploaded a theme that had a rather long name: `andrew-vista-
 surgicalcloud-scheduleperfect-hybrid-wordpress-theme-3b5734edbcc7.zip`

 It was downloaded from a BitBucket Repository and automatically included
 this long name with SHA's, etc, so the folder in the .zip was named
 `andrew-vista-surgicalcloud-scheduleperfect-hybrid-wordpress-theme-
 3b5734edbcc7`, thus the uploaded theme folder created on the server was
 named `andrew-vista-surgicalcloud-scheduleperfect-hybrid-wordpress-theme-
 3b5734edbcc7`.

 All was fine until I ran into a problem. Anything saved via `'type' =>
 'theme_mod'`, including menus, was not saving. I did a look in my DB and
 found that the key for the option was shorter than the folder name, see
 http://prntscr.com/4tyxio

 Not sure what the fix is, but this at least happened on two WordPress
 installs.
