Comment (by swissspidy):

 @okvee Theme mods are somewhat different. I understand this ticket to be
 about helping themes to remove their custom tables etc. on uninstall
 (which themes really shouldn't use). Theme mods are handled by WordPress
 and crucial to the overall UX. When changing themes and previewing them in
 the customizer, I want to have the same modifications (e.g. custom CSS)
 applied as before. I don't want this data to get lost.
