PRPierFrameAdminBP - Themeable classic pier 1.0.0 ui
========================================
The old classic pier admin UI (including the tree navigation widget)
I just abandoned the idea of using the Blueprint grid to layout the
classic ui.
The table based layout is much more fluid all round, and the arguments
used for css in favour of tables do not really apply to us with Pier.
The argument is usually something along the lines of the content markup
being too layout-specific. However in Pier, the semantic markup is not
HTML, but instead it is the object model.
Secondly it is trivial to write an alternative table layout to go with a
new css style sheet.
basically we can have the best of all worlds.
best regards
