They don't "have" to be. but it makes changing themes easier if each of
those themes also have custom files.
To change themes then is just a one line change in the conf.py
If using the site/files/, then you have to manually delete / copy. And
if you forget, you end up scratching your head late at night trying to
understand why your site isn't working :)

Do the files that go in a custom theme that would use that really have to be in

Or we can just make the theme plugin support a files/ that maps to output/

I have been converting some wordpress themes by wget the preview page, then
building nikola themes from them.
Alot of files, images, css, js get saved to a folder structure of
http://domain.com/wp/themes/twentysixteen/.
<http://domain.com/wp/themes/twentysixteen/> ..
http://domain.com/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen/.
<http://domain.com/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen/> ..
etc etc
Ah. The best course of action would be to fix all references not to
point to wp-content and stuff, but I’m not sure if you could automate
that easily. (Do give it a try!)
so I wanted a way of getting a folder structure from root for each theme.
Currently I am copying the folders to the /files/ folder, but then I forget
to remove / update and things get in mess.
I think it will be a simple plugin to add this. Just after build complete,
copy files. I'll have a re-read of the plugins system :)
Not really. That will be a Task plugin to copy those files whenever
doit says so. You can base (read: copy-paste) your plugin on the
built-in copy_assets plugin.
