highly suspect statements

these states are all quite common ... trying to make some kind of supposition 
as to which is the most common is a waste of time

in my experience, from the many forms of Gentoo communication (real life, 
mailing lists, irc, forums, etc...):
 - quite common for people to be lazy and just use the default
 - quite common for people to change the default to their own thing
 - quite common for people to use just Gentoo themes where they can

as long as people include Gentoo themes in packages for people to select, we 
should have pretty good coverage of everyone's needs
