Description

React common buttons and semantic UI buttons share theme styling right now. This is nice because it reduces duplication, but a lot of specificity (or even !important) is required to override certain semantic UI rules, which isn't needed for react common. But that specificity can be frustrating when overriding a themed style elsewhere. I think it'll make more sense in the long term to have these separated so we don't have to make overly-specific css styles anytime we want to do something special with a button.
