If this was the only problem...

Plastik is almost unusable if your use white text on a very dark background, 
a lot of framings become invisible.

You want a comment, here is mine: You aren't at the very beginning of your 
patching job if you want to make Plastik usable with a so-called dark 
colorscheme.

To support dark colorschemes, my style (Serenity) makes a really extensive 
use of its equivalent of alphaBlendColors(), especially to replace any 
fixed .light() and .dark() which have the inverse of the appropriate effect 
when the colors are inverted. background.dark() for example doesn't produce 
any visible result when background == #000000, neither does 
foreground.light() when foreground == #FFFFFF. You really haven't started 
yet!

Just my 0.02 Euro,
