I don't doubt we'll have BPF themes one of these years...:)

Seriously, though, I was thinking about uses beyond building kernels.
If I, say, always want to build with the alabaster theme, and so set
THEME to effect that, will it then mess with my desktop environment or
some such?

A quick search doesn't turn up anything, so probably I'm worrying too
much. Maybe I should just apply it as-is, and we can change it if a
conflict turns up.

Thanks,

jon
