Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:3931 Roo <roo.watt at gmail.com>]:
 > One possible use would allow a theme developer to only "theme" the
 desired <window>'s in a plugin without a needing to theme the entire
 plugin. I believe this will enable a finer grained level of reuse for
 theme files than the current plugin level.

 default/music-metadata.xml file for the meta data editor.

 The existing code allows for the above automatically. If a window
 definition isn't found in a theme then the default one will be used
 anyway.

 If that is all you are trying to do then this patch is redundant and IMHO
 just complicates theme handling without any great benefit that I can see.
