Ok! I never heard of base16 before; I have just skimmed over the code of
it a bit.
I don't care which framework is used as long as there is some, but what
I can see by just skimming over the code on github, they use names
base0-base15 (in hex:-); I would prefer the Solarized naming scheme,
since it adds more "logical separation" base1-base8 and accent1-accent8.
If a 3rd party package would use such names, then accent1-accent8 would
be names they care about, unless that package is a theme. I would also
like to see more logical names (either a defvaralias or a macro)
describing what base1 is used for, something cs-main-backgroung
cs-main-foreground, cs-highlight-color etc.

Indeed the idea used in base16 seem to be very similar to what I proposed.
I checked hastily link provided and also like this idea too:
https://github.com/makuto/auto-base16-theme
"This script generates a base16 color theme intended for code syntax
highlighting from a source image."
But I don't understand if they mean they use the auto created theme just
for syntax highlighting or to theme gui elements. Does not matter.
