 Both would probably cause confusion with theme authors.  It's hard enough
 explaining the differences between `get_template_directory_uri()` and
 `get_stylesheet_directory_uri()` as it is.

 Might this be a good opportunity to break away from the standard template
 vs. stylesheet terminology?

 I'd almost suggest `get_parent_stylesheet_uri()`, but this doesn't
 necessarily reflect a parent theme.

 Maybe `get_template_style_uri()`?  That wouldn't be consistent with
 `get_stylesheet_uri()` though.

 At least `get_template_uri()` would be consistent with the other function
 names, even if it seems like it's referencing the directory URI rather
 than the stylesheet.

 Hmph..I don't like any of the options.
