Description

Normally when you write a diazo theme you tend to include the viewlet managers explicitly via the rules file. Since the debug toolbar provides its own viewlet manager it's unlikely to be visible from the diazo themed site, so you have to turn off the diazo theme to view it.
I'm not sure the best way to fix this. Perhaps if it used one of the standard viewlet managers and then js or css to position itself at the top of the page?

Research direction

Start by examining how the debug toolbar registers its viewlet manager and how a Diazo theme includes viewlet managers through its rules file. Reproduce the toolbar's visibility on a Diazo-themed site and a non-themed site; done means the toolbar remains visible without disabling the theme.
