Public bug reported:

In Xubuntu 13.10 I was able to load themes from ~/.local/share/themes.

In Xubuntu 14.04 I can still load the GTK3 theme, but not the GTK2
theme.

Workaround:
Load the themes from ~/.themes.

Downside:
Cluttered home directory.

How to reproduce:
1. Download a theme and put in in ~/.themes.
2. Open settings manager and a GTK3 app. (I used gedit.)
3. Apply the downloaded theme.
So far everything should work.

4.  Move the downloaded theme to ~/.local/share/themes.
5. Apply another theme and reapply the downloaded one.
At this point only the GTK2 theme is loaded.
