What is the rationale for not having those themes bundled by default in XS and 
committed along with the other color themes in xwiki-platform? I feel it would 
be much simpler for users and as you said it’s small. So why not make it the 
simplest possible for users and not have them to find them out randomly on 
e.x.o and have to install the extension?

Thanks
