I'm trying to find out if it's possible to display a dialog window during installation which let's user to choose wheter install the optional stuff or not. That way it would only be a single package which includes all the goodies and user just chooses if he wants those or not.
That should make joppu and other "I'm counting how many variations you flood to repos" -users satisfied I think.

Well sure, but it would not overwrite your system's transitions and would only be active with the "parent" theme.
If someone doesn't like the transition they don't use the theme. Simple azat.
What wasn't clear by the OP and from later responses in this thread was whether some themes overwrite the OEM file.
If they do (and yours don't, BTW), then that is not the way to do it and those themes should not be voted "up".
I'm going to post it again so that it is not misunderstood:
Themes by D-livil are done right and do not change OEM files permanently.

But about that selection during install; I got it working just fine when installing via Xterm but application manager is something that's out of my nowledge.
Someone suggested that I should write a program which opens the dialog and then does tricks I want it to do. I'd highly appreciate if someone with knowledge and wisdom could provide some help here
I really want to give end user an option to choose if he wants custom transitions or icons or just the basic graphics.

It's widely practiced on the S60 platform, and works well. One version for S60-V3/FP1 and another for S60-V3/FP2. You can even download a theme with custom icons or with default icons for a lot of the S60 N-Series devices.
