this is incorrect: option->palette.color(QPalette::HighlightedText), at least until we change it so that the palette that gets passed around with the paint options is one derived from Plasma::Theme ... this really should be gathered from the KColorScheme that comes with the Theme.

in any case, i think a simpler approach might be to simply provide a rounded "lozenge" of colour behind the text using a known-to-contrast-well colour (the palette can give us that colour). unless we get a performant, good looking text halo algo in, i'd rather go for that. we had something that was OK looking in kde3 but was horrifically slow.

btw, the odds are high that a feature request will end up being using different colours for the background for different icons (making it easier to visually tell them apart).
