	Something I noticed while poking around in the Control Center Appearance & 
Themes => Colors is that there are some widget types  in Widget Color that do 
not appear in the example window at the top of the pane.  Also, there are no 
widget types for Active/Inactive Tab Background/Text; they are apparently 
using the values for other widgets, and so active tabs in Konqueror and 
Konsole are hardly distinguishable from the inactive ones.

	It seems to me that the Colors module of the Control Center would benefit 
from some enhancements to make it easier to create non-traditional schemes 
such as the dark sorts.
