Themes moved under "Obsolete Features"

But only when using the build-in theme, which becomes quite worry-some as one can not really style Sales/Purchase Quotes, Orders, Invoices and receipts and payments to a business house-style.

This topic was started on 9 August 2022 after an earlier post on 1 August by @lubos No more built-in themes? - #4 by lubos where he stated:

Internally, Manager wasn’t using plain theme for quite some time.
I do want to start moving users away from custom themes. Learn what they are using them for and see how this can be solved differently.

A lot of posts in both topics since then made clear what is needed. However, so far we can not even change the colours of table-headings or font-styles and sizes. We struggle-on based on some vague promissory notes that are in place as pacifiers rather than the promised solutions. I noticed in the few years using Manager that often features suddenly get broken, removed, added, discontinued, etc.

I keep my fingers crossed about what next good feature such as the ability to send emails with attachments from Manager (PDF generator), and Custom themes (this topic) will be made obsolete without similar or improved solutions. It feels half-baked and I sincerely hope that rather than adding features and making some obsolete that focus is on making them work better and gain usefulness.
