Comment:

 I hadn't had the chance to comment here yet, and am only doing so in
 passing at the moment.

 We use add_theme_support() internally in very interesting ways, that way
 we can use current_theme_supports() later on. That includes
 current_theme_supports('widgets') and 'editor-style', when in reality,
 you're never calling add_theme_support('editor-style') or 'widgets'.
 Instead, we use add_theme_support internally, calling it for example when
 a sidebar is registered.

 remove_theme_support('widgets') will stop current_theme_supports() from
 working, but will not remove widgets.

 If we do this, I guess we should probably blacklist certain ones such as
 background, widgets, etc.
