Hard to say.  A pretty large proportion of the themes you find on
`themes.org' (well that's now defunct, but you know) are pixmap based.
Basically it's what you use if you want something really pretty and
unique; the other theme engines are not that bad, but tend to generate
pretty bland-looking results (e.g., they all basically look sort of like
windows with different colors and more rounded edges or something :-).

I don't think there's any easy way to tell.  Many users like pixmap
themes though, so I think they should be supported where possible
(sometimes it's simply not possible [or practical] of course).
