Eh! Eh! nice try.
Didn't we agree that no hardcoded colors were to be used anyway, for
accessibility problems? If we can find generic color roles for some
particular application, those should be part of the color theme. So unless
the user overrides some default choices, we could define a few colors (say 8)
for graph use. They should probably be brushes, however, so various kind of
stripes could be used for monochrome or high-contrast themes.
