Problem/Motivation

There are way too many theme functions / template files in core. Some are similar (if not identical) and should be consolidated.

Proposed resolution

We have two options:

  1. Remove theme_book_admin_table and call theme('table') instead.
  2. If we really do need a separate preprocess function for the admin tables in book module, then call theme('table__book_admin') instead of theme('table') and add all our preprocess magic into template_preprocess_table__book_admin()

Remaining tasks

Decide which of the 2 options above to pursue, and do it.

User interface changes

None.

API changes

I thought I'd give this a stab to get it started and maybe someone can pick it up from here.

The values aren't showing but most everything else is rendering. May be due to something render element does...
