IRC works, as does this list mailing. You would ideally be able to find
developers on FMS, but at the very least you won't find me - I've had
trouble keeping FMS running. Sone would work.

Letting sites use parts of an approved theme is an interesting idea.
We'd have to think carefully about the security implications, and how
exactly it would work. It would need more code to work that way.

A section on tasks to perform in the first run setup? That's an
interesting idea. They are available from the plugins page in this way,
but it's a good point that it'd make sense to not make people dig around
for the option.

A version of the setup that's still under development would look
something like this. [0] Perhaps a "Tasks" section would be appropriate.
My understanding is that Irfan Mir is working on CSS that gives
equivalent functionality without Javascript.
