Wouldn't a simpler solution be to change the interactive spec of the
command load-theme to conditionally specify a non-nil NO-ENABLE
argument? This argument could, for example, be toggled based on the
value of a new user option or an additional yes-or-no prompt.
WDYM by "autoload a theme", by the way, and how would that differ from
the means by which the function custom-available-themes determines which
themes are available for loading?
