New description:

 **What problem does this address?**

 A new user might not understand the difference between uploading a theme
 and browsing the theme repository. To make it easier for new users to use
 WordPress, user actions should be clearer.

 **What is your proposed solution?**

 [[Image(the-problem_add-new-theme.png)]]

 - The Add New isn't descriptive of the action the user should it. The text
 on the button should be changed to "Browse WordPress Themes".
 - Manage Themes should be changed to My Themes to indicate to the user
 these are the themes they have installed on their website.
 - A button should be added that allows the user to upload a theme. It
 should say "Upload Theme".
 - The button that says "Add New Theme" should be changed to "Browse
 WordPress Themes" so the user understands the button is not for uploading
 WordPress themes but to browse themes.
