Comment (by Shapeshifter 3):

 Even though I currently use this GREAT plugin to create Child Themes:
 https://wordpress.org/plugins/child-theme-configurator/. I agree with this
 request from W.P. Ginfo with some additional thoughts:

 1.) How about integrating the above plugin into Core?

 2.) If not, Learn from what it's Developer has already accomplished.

 3.) Let all Theme Developers know up-front, which method of Stylesheet
 Configuration will be used by Core Default:

 a. Handled by Primary Theme?
 b. Enqueued Parent Stylesheet?
 c. Enqueued Both Parent and Child Stylesheets?
 d. @imported Parent Stylesheet?
 4.) It be nice if Standard Default Child Themes also worked for themes
 designed by Automattic, and offered in the .org Themes Directory.

 5.) Maybe Automattic can slip some money to the first mentioned plugin's
 Developer, to reward him for all of the efforts he's already put into his
 own well thought-out solution.

 (Just some additional thoughts to make things run Standard & Smoothly).
