If the user has gone through the trouble of loading a theme from somewhere
other than the theme dir, I think it's fair to expect that the user should
understand what's going on.

alternative is that a random theme (the one that sorts first) is selected.
At least most of the settings will probably still be from the loaded theme.

recently loaded one of the two is selected?
