I don't know why I don't like this "copy" solution. Maybe because
everything will feel less "wiki" like.
Everything will become like a template, including color themes. Lot's of
duplication instead of relying on the history.
Another solution (that applies only for the use case of Color Themes and
Skins) would be to externalize the Logo property.

Yes that's why I sent this mail.
But as I suggested there is always ways to make them not do that if we
want those theme to stay standard. For example the UI could automate a
bit the creation of a copy of the standard theme you want to customize
(ask you the new name, etc.).

The major problem is that some users reused the
Color Themes as they
were,
but they have "customized" them by
adding their own logo.
