Well, it feels the only sane way, if you need sunburst styles within your theme and don't want to export/sync them manually. The easiest way, of course, is to have unthemed Plone for logged in users, but that would take away Plone's "edit pages in their context" magic. And, currently, that rule is there already when you create new theme TTW with p.a.theming's theme editor. If it really seems that there is no new solutions for this, besides toolbar, maybe we should add registries+bundles+skins-integration for p.a.theming[plugins?] so that each theme would have implicit skin with the default + theme specific bundles in place when theme is activated. -Asko ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
