It would seem that a text-file configuration would be desirable. Upon 
Blender startup, it checks for an appropriately named text file (a 
template for which could be provided with the installation). If the 
file does not exist (as it will not for most users), you get the 
carefully chosen Blender default colors. Most people who "just want 
to work with it" will have no problem. Power users/those not happy 
with the default would then have access to a very simple method for 
modifying things (rename provided text template, changing color 
values as desired). This would avoid any interior overhead for 
managing color sets once Blender is running.
