Not sure you got his point -- I believe Davit is referring to the
implementation of an uninstall hook for themes. He's pretty clear he'd want
that triggered on deletion, not deactivation. Basically, how it works for
plugins.

I think implementing themes uninstall hooks would be a logical future step.
We could start by removing items created using the theme_mod functions,
which I don't think most themes use, but we use it for storing metadata for
custom backgrounds and headers.
