Theme: Drop hardcoded reference to theme's directory

[v1nce]

As authentic-theme seem to be the theme of choice for webmin, this is the one I choosed to try to tweak it [*] a bit. So I started to clone the theme (without breaking current installation).
I just exported the theme using webmin. Unzipped the theme.gz. change name of the holding directory. Edit the theme.info to change the name and zipped it back.
I managed to import it back but it is not working. I got messages about file missing.
I guess it's because there are hardcoded reference to "authentic-theme" in a lot of cgi.

It looks to me like there was some attempt to use a var for the theme directory ($config_directory . "/" . $current_theme)

How difficult would it be (for a total newbie) to replace the hardcoded references ?
If I patched the authentic.pm, authentic-init.pm and authentic-lib.pm would I get a minimal working webmin ? (minimal = UI + dashboard are working ; some modules may crash)

[*] I want to add xhr whenever this is possible and generate most (all ?) of the UI on the client side.

Yes, this is the current drawback. I've started on working on completely renewed version 19.00. I will try to make sure that the path is not hardcoded there.

Meanwhile, I don't know how hard it would be. Probably replacing authentic-theme with $current_theme should do the work.

It will be added to 19.00-RC9 about tomorrow.

Thanks.
