Comment:

 I'm going to ask Otto42 to change WP.org to:
  * add flexible-layout, fixed-layout, and responsive-layout as allowed
 tags
  * recommend (on upload) that -layout be used instead of -width
  * for the requested list of tags, serve -width to < 3.8 and -layout to >=
 3.8 (the HTTP API's user agent can be parsed; if a plugin is overriding
 it, not really a big deal)
  * for each individual theme API response, append the -layout tags if it
 only has -width (and vice versa)

 3.7 installs will then be able to search for -layout and find themes
 updated for 3.8. 3.8 installs will be able to search for -width and find
 themes still using the old tags.

 So more or less, deprecate and alias. This is not particularly easy to do,
 but it's time to do it.
