note that the * part is not the theme name, but a further explanation
of the package contents (e.g., icons, decorations). in fact, packages
from kdeartwork ship several themes in each package, splitted by
component-type.
for non-kdeartwork packages (i.e., not from kde.org), one wants to
split by origin and ship all components together.

agreed. note to Wouter: I strongly prefer kde-$FOO-style instead of
using the word theme, since kde uses the word "theme" for something
different than styles (as baghira).
as you say, theme is already used by other systems and using it would
be consistent, but it could confuse kde users making them think the
package contains what it doesn't. plus, the word "style" is also
meaningful (at least I perceive it as such).

yes, please consider kde-baghira-style, since it's not only kwin
decorations that you'll be providing in the package, right? see
rationale in my other message.
