Comment:

 So here is the recap of our last chat :

 == The goal ==
 Let network administrators choose a network default theme on the admin.

 == Technical Approach ==

 * UX : Network > Themes list table with a row action "Set default theme"
 (this will be a network option)
 * Add an indicator on the same page to say "This theme is the default
 theme", like super admin in user list page.
 * Add a restriction that the theme cannot be deleted
 * Keep Backward Compatibility with {{{WP_DEFAULT_THEME}}} constant, that
 means, if the constant is set, we can't let user choose another default
 theme : How handle this behavior ?
