New description:

 It appears that the 'allowedthemes' network option is channeling Rick
 Astley in that it never gives up or let's down, or runs around and deserts
 the themes it stores.

 In my testing, it would seem that all themes ever installed are stored in
 perpetuity. It's possible this behavior has been around since `WP_Theme`
 was written in 3.4.

 For example: I ran across this bug when testing something unrelated, and
 noticed that 'allowedthemes' contained 303 total keys (I have ~10 themes
 on my test build currently).
