That's the "non intuitive" part ;)
That component isn't there to select what's currently active. It's only
to configure the settings of the theme you select in the Desktop Settings.
Example:
First, go to the "Advanced->Desktop Theme Details" settings, select
"Customized", and configure the clock to use Oxygen and hit "Apply".
Nothing gets changed on the desktop; this is intended.
Now, right click on the desktop and select "Desktop Settings". There,
in the "Theme" drop-down menu, select "(Customized)". *Now* the clock
will change to Oxygen.
Not very intuitive, is it :P
