  Just a thought... Why not a simple comma delimited file?

  256,128,128 #3d back color
  128,128,128 #plum buttons

  my pseudocode (heh...)  anywho, this would make "Themes" from other =
users (and the supplied ones :)  also... this could also be expanded =
with image support (gtk themes like)

  What on earth !
  You would stifle the creative control of the users !
  Woow that is silly. And foolish. If somebody wants to make a mess of
  blender then they should beable to.

  It you want control. You should separate the gui code to a simjple=20
  hackable file
  so themes could be dropped in.

  I like changing the background color. Helps my eyes.
  And plus blender would be stepping back in stead of moving forward.
