Public bug reported:

When I discovered that you can put template files under
/local/theme/templates, I assumed that they would act like lang files
placed under /local, and override any other theme files.

But it turns out that, no, they come further down in the include list
than the theme directories, which means their only use is if you're
creating entirely new content.

I think that the ability to use /local to override an individual theme
file would be quite useful, though.
