Comment:

 I know the way phpBB does it is with template/style, but I'm not sure if a
 phpBB style allows PHP code to override, or if it's just a stylesheet
 thing.

 I think because the terms theme and template have become synonymous, it's
 hard to say which direction to take. To me, theme/stye are basically the
 same thing.

 Template - HTML
 Theme/style - CSS/images

 For the purpose of WordPress, parent/child probably makes the most sense,
 since it isn't template/theme/style specific in any way.
