 Currently if you want to upload a theme that isn't in the WordPress.org
 repository, you can click on the 'Upload Theme' button and a form appears
 saying "If you have a theme in a .zip format, you may install it by
 uploading it here." This allows you to upload a theme without having to go
 to a new page first.

 On the other hand, for plugins if you press "Upload Plugin" you're taken
 to a new page at /wp-admin/plugin-install.php?tab=upload

 For parity (and to speed things up when you're uploading a plugin) I've
 ported over some of the JS from themes to allow the same interface.
