Description
In Drupal 5 and before, nobody should call a theme() function in a hook_menu(), because it would initialize the theme system too early and prevent dynamic modification of the theme (for example in the block administration interface).
See for example #64409: Block settings not uniquely set for themes (unless set from default theme).
Could we write a rule for this?
#1
Of course, that's a feature request.
#2
Do we have the same problem/restriction in 6.x?
#3
The problem is irrelevant in 6 because hook_menu() is now only called during the menu rebuilding process.
