this isn't really Kotlin related, but it's so hard to google themes/styles stuff: anyone know why if I have a theme applying buttonStyle, android:theme on that style does not get applied? e.g.

<style name="Theme.Mine" ...>
  <item name="buttonStyle">@style/Widget.Mine.MyButton</item>
  ...
</style>
<style name="Widget.Mine.MyButton" ...>
  <item name="android:theme">@style/ThemeOverlay.Mine.MyButton</item>
  ...
</style>
<style name="ThemeOverlay.Mine.MyButton" ...>
  <item name="colorAccent">@color/some_color</item>
  ...
</style>

the android:theme only seems to work if I apply it directly to a Button (or style="@style/Widget.Mine.Button") 😞
