Dolphin on left; Thunar on right

SUMMARY
***
Feature request for being able to change the background + icon colors of the
Places section. See attached screenshot: on the left is Dolphin with standards
Breeze icons, on the right is Thunar, an alternative file manager. At the icon
size in the screenshot, the icons are black against a grey background, which is
terrible for contrast. I would like to be able to change:
A) The color of the icons. For some reason these are changed to monochrome at
this size. Only by making the icons bigger can I get the icons to become blue
again, but that has its own disadvantages: they become too big and difficult to
fit and get an overview. Why not give everyone the option whether they want the
icons to be monochrome or not, regardless of the size? 
B) The background of the Places section. I'd like to be able to make this
white, which will result in better contrast both for the icons and the black
text. 
For both, an option in the Settings to customise this would be great.
Please note this is partly a matter of taste and customisability, but will also
really help visually challenged users see things better in this section.
