Hi Guillaume,
the need for the "Customized Variables" is to help the simple user to
change the new variables values easily and prevent it from making changes
in the code to prevent it modifies the code without knowing, in this tab we
create a variables to have the variable whit his textfield and we use this
variable in the "lessCode" field.
For the JavaScript code, I fully understand the separation you want to do
between the theme and skin, I thought it will help us to make animated
themes, to allow the user to use only the theme instead of use the theme
and skin, this would help to accentuate the separation because the user
going to use a theme for small needs and use the skin for a great needs
since the skin has more advantage.
Yacine.

Hi Yacine.
Thanks for publishing your idea.
I don't understand the need for the "Customized Variables" panel. We can
already create new variables in the "lessCode" field without declaring it
before in the theme editor.
The only benefit I can see is that these variables would be taken into
account in the live preview, which is currently not the case. It's a good
benefit, but limited to the variables that the skin already uses but
without being exposed in the editor.
About the ability to add some JavaScript code in the theme, I have mixed
feelings. Why do you need this ability in the theme? It should be more
useful in the skin actually, don't you think?
During the last seminar, we had a discussion about what should be a skin
and what should be a theme. Both notions are not clearly separated right
now.
The conclusion was that we should put our modifications in the skin, and
use the themes only when it's simple variation of the user interface
(colors, fonts).
I am pretty sure that a JavaScript field would not be used for these simple
variations, but to add new behaviours, to create a new user experience. In
that case, it's more the role of a skin.
What do you think about this?
Thanks,

Hi Devs,
I would to propose an improvement for the color theme editor to make it
more powerful and flexible.
In order to achieve this, I propose to
add a new tab "Customized Variables
<
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/Improvethecolorthemeeditor
"
to the editor. This tab would allow us to add more LESS CSS variables and
list them in a list We could use this variable in order to add more LESS
css rules in the advanced tab and target any area on the platform.
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12351
WDYT?
