Obviously I missed the last weekend attempt
I have closed a lot of items on my list and fixed several bugs caused by previous updates (mostly from the hardening of the dispatcher security) but there were other strange ones that you just had to stumble across. There were also a few bugs in the JS service worker that was preventing the locking and sticky of topics. A few bugs in the theme variants, etc. etc.
Well enough sniveling, all I can say is I am working on getting it packed

Made an update to the theme editor just so it stayed, somewhat, in step with the current themes. Added a few more areas that you can tweak and added the other theme variants that had been added (blue/gold). As before you can go to each area and make changes (with reset by clicking the name) and when you are happy choose to download the custom.css which you would place in your theme dir or rename as custom_xyz.css and place it in the variant directory.
