/**
 * Interface for web-based theme resolution strategies that allows for
 * both theme resolution via the request and theme modification via
 * request and response.
 *
 * <p>This interface allows for implementations based on session,
 * cookies, etc. The default implementation is FixedThemeResolver,
 * simply using a configured default theme.
 *
 * <p>Note that this resolver is only responsible for determining the
 * current theme name. The Theme instance for the resolved theme name
 * gets looked up by DispatcherServlet via the respective ThemeSource,
 * i.e. the current WebApplicationContext.
 *
 * <p>Use RequestContext.getTheme() to retrieve the current theme in
 * controllers or views, independent of the actual resolution strategy.
