That doc says that to enable
a theme permanently, you have to put (load-theme 'FOO) in your .emacs
file. If you load a theme interactively, it is only for the current
session. I completely agree with this particular setup.
It is entirely consistent, but it is not very good. Everything else
about custom themes can be done with a convenient interface, but
permanently _using_ a theme requires writing Lisp code. That is not
good. We need a convenient interface to permanently adjust the set of
themes.
I agree now that making various custom operations do so is not the
right interface. But we need to add a good one. Telling users "edit
.emacs" is not adequate.
Perhaps the interface could be to customize custom-enabled-themes. We
could make enable-theme and disable-theme work with Custom so that
they won't make it a rogue value.
