The question remains how to get that running just for the SWT application without having to change a system theme, or without installing anything to the system or the user.


Well now we get into murkier waters of whether SWT should have a concept of theme at all. SWT really should just be emulating the look and feel of whatever is running on the user's system...so if SWT ships and enforces its own theme that does break that contract.

It's one thing to patch a theme that's already set on the user's system, it's another thing to enforce and use a completely different theme all together and ignore the user's system theme entirely.
