I am actually in the process of replacing all the code that simply
prints out HTML for form inputs with calls to a function, which can be
overridden by a theme. So code like :

print "<input type=submit name=ok value='Click Me'>\n";

is being replaced with :

print &ui_submit("Click Me", "ok"),"\n";

Your theme will then be able to define a function call theme_ui_submit
in it's theme.pl file, which will override ui_submit and can return
whatever HTML you like for the button.

Not all modules use these new functions yet, but some (like Logrotate
and IPFilter) do ..
