Comment:

 [attachment:"47124.diff"] adds the 'Add New' sub-menu item:

 - The new item is added at position 6 `['themes.php'][6]`. 'Customize' and
 'Widgets' are moved to position 7 and 8 respectively. 'Menus' is unchanged
 at position 10, and so on. These positions can't be overridden by plugins
 when using the correct way to add sub-menu items, which is by the means of
 `add_submenu_page()`. There's a remote chance that plugins that are using
 non-standard ways to add sub-items may be impacted but I'd say WordPress
 can't guarantee non-standard code to not be impacted. A quick dev note
 would be good anyways.
 - Given the Theme install page works only with JavaScript on, the new menu
 item uses a CSS class `hide-if-no-js` so it will not be displayed when
 JavaScript is disabled.
