 * One of the main things that we, as an agency, are asked to do, is to update a
   client’s theme to something newer, faster and more attractive.
 * Yet the process of developing a new theme alongside an existing one is just too
   complex. It involves using a third-party staging plugin or using a staging environment
   that the host may, or may not, supply. We do it. But it’s complicated and time-
   consuming and it flies in the face of the “simplicity” that WP touts.
 * I think it would be a great help to the WP community if the development of a 
   new them alongside the existing one was written into the core WP code in the 
   future.
 * Thanks
