Look how /usr/share/themes is organized:
Each theme directory has subdirectories which can be gtk-2.0, gtk-1.0,
gtk or metacity-1. I think this is a good idea, we can avoid naming
conflicts with this schema. My patch looks for a file gtk-2.0/gtkrc in a
theme directory to check if the theme is useable for gtk2. This is
offical gtk theme format.
