Agreed, when you think about it having the same theme for frontend (eCommerce) and backend is actually not a necessity. And frontend (eCommerce) must obviously done before anyway.
To make it more clear Paul, Jonatan and I are working together in ilscipio http://www.ilscipio.com/en/ And we would appreciate if other companies could join in a common theme overhaul effort. We could synchronize the work effort creating sub-tasks from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5040 as suggested Jonatan.
