Hi,

I had started after aKademy an implementation of the colors stuff.
For the configuration, I choose a scheme similar than the KNotify config, 
where we can configure colors of each application both from kcontrol and from 
the application itself.

I commited the code is in trunk/playground/base/colors

i've made a simple API that application could use.
I had already ported KMail (i have the code locally, but it doesn't compile 
anymore)

I noticed that having foregroundColor and backgroundColor doesn't work well 
for the majority of the case.
(in kmail, only few colors are by pair bf/fg)

The idea of having Fonts related to color roles doesn't work well also for 
most of kmail roles.   Maybe that's just because KMail is just not designed 
for that anyway.
