Editje looked like it's not exactly maintained. Not sure if I brushed it off
too lightly, but the manual gives 404. One Github repo/fork had commits from
years ago, which doesn't sound too nice as I understand the theme format just
changed...

Eflete complained like crazy. Does this have something to do with the format
change?

Thanks, but I couldn't make heads or tails out of it...

After I extracted the default theme's edj file and added the paths into
Enventor's path settings, I got complaints such as these:

edje_cc: Error. PARAMS:

I watched the Youtube demo video, but somehow Enventor doesn't seem very easy to use.

So far I'd say Eflete looks like what I'd really like to use, but maybe
we have to wait for things to mature a bit. I don't think I'm devoted
enough to put the time and effort into tweaking the default theme with a text
editor, though it certainly looks like it's made to be tweaked :)
