Well, themes aren't handled the most effective way. Until this has changed,
you have to be patient. Easy, eh ?!? :-)

Could you email me an outline fo the new structure? I am working on the
developer docs, and documenting the theme structure (mostly to analyze what
can be done better...) is one of the things I want to do next.

You are basically right with your assumption about the functions in the
individual theme files. Good you haven't looked at layout.php :o)
