cool, a few comments:
1. It's nice to have the themelang-variable, but you don't need it
necessarily.
If you template is in /children/es you images will be there too
(assuming a setup with your dirs as below)
2. I'd prefer intranet-serverroot and opac-serverroot than
koha/intra/htdocs/ and koha/opac/htdocs/.
3. The includes via ssi are getting replaced by includes via
HTML::Template <TMPL_INCLUDE NAME=...>

Right, maybe my english is too bad, but this is what I thought.
Your css-example to deal with intranet/opac is a little bit early.
.css are nice, but we have to improve the designing-process step by
step.
For now all I want to do is to templatify all the koha-scripts.

Exactly as I see it.
I'd love to hear Finlay's ok for this.

Sorry, don't know, since i'm working with the latest cvs-files for quite
a while now.

At the moment you have to set a vaiable in the systempreferences.
Name=opacthemes
Value=theme1 theme2 theme3 ...
you have to specify at least one theme
The name OPACthemes is a little confusing as it is even for the intranet
