  How do I set one theme for the frontend and another for the backend?

  Create a plugin to redirect to newtheme=foo if function type eq admin. ..and vice versa
  
  or you could create a dual function theme (conditional styles and templates).

  Go to Theme administration.
  Select theme, you want to use for admin and mark "Admin theme" option.
  Then go to Admin module administration, Settings section, find there list of themes and select your theme.
  
  Thanks to this - changing global theme should not change admin theme.

  You are 100 percent correct.
  
  
  Never mind my gibberish below.

  This is true? I understand these as permission schemes. If I have admin privileges, I may use this theme if it is 'admin' else not. Likewise, if it is set to user, then these themes become available for users (admins are normally user class, as well).
  
  ...but it does suggest 'Admin Panel'.
  
  If this is true, how does the admin panel get selected? (set to active).

  Very good. Very well hidden.
  
  But Dave: Your hint is nice for functions that are not type=admin (type=edit in Pagesetter e.g.) which should also use the admin theme. What exactly do I write into that plugin?

  I guess a 'complex' filter would be required, that would check against first against 'admin', then against $module and $type.
  
  With BlankTheme we do a bit of this already right in the module templates. For example: http://code.zikula.org/blanktheme/browser/trunk/themes/blanktheme/templates/modules/pages.htm
  
  It shouldn't be hard to extend this to filter for $type

  No - it should simply handle everything that's not "user"

  copy admin.htm and the associated CSS file from the theme you want to use as your admin/background theme and replace them in your activated theme.
