In the standard kdelibs/kdeartwork themes there is Light Style 2nd 
revision. There are also a few themes at kde-look that do this.

There are several problems with including another color in the color 
scheme. The foremost is that there is no guarantee that a theme will 
honor it. Most themes will just use the standard Qt color roles and 
never bother looking up KDE-specific colors. This lack of guarantee 
also applies to any transparency option in the Kicker configuration.
