WordPress 3.5 のリリースを控えて、公式テーマのガイドラインの変更がある模様です。
- テーマのスクリーンショット (screenshot.png) 最大サイズは、 300x225px から 600x450px. (Fixed per comment below)に変更
- Presentation vs Functionality項目の新しいガイドライン: テーマは、カスタムショートを含んではならない
- ガイドラインの変更: サイドバーの機能の重要度を「必須」から「推奨」に引き下げ
（ テーマが、まだテーマがコンテンツサイドバー機能を組み込んでいる場合は、コアの設定APIを実装するために必要になるでしょう。） - add_theme_support( ‘automatic-feed-links’ ) 重要度を、「必須」から「推奨」変更(comments項目の下のところに、修正)
- Change Theme Screenshot (screenshot.png) maximum dimensions from 300x225px to 600x450px. (Fixed per comment below)
- New guideline under presentation-vs-functionality: Themes must not bundle custom post-content shortcodes
- Change guideline: reduce criticality for Content Sidebar feature from required to recommended. (Themes would still be required to implement core Settings API if Theme incorporates content sidebar feature.)
- Change criticality of add_theme_support( ‘automatic-feed-links’ ) from required to recommended. (Modified per comments below)

In other words: Themes don’t *have* to include dynamic-content sidebars (whether as a traditional sidebar, or a footer sidebar, etc.) .
This came out of a discussion about Appearance -> Widgets no longer displaying if Themes don’t call register_sidebar(). Dynamic Sidebars would thus be treated as analogous with Custom Backgrounds or Custom Header Images.

Awesome. Thanks.

- 1. It would be great (particularly for stripped-down/minimalist themes) to not be forced in to implementing widget areas.

Could explain this one a bit more? I’m not quite clear what it refers to.
