Quoting jpwhiting,

 <jpwhiting> heh kratingpainter takes the rating icon from the theme
and changes the image pixels to grayscale manually...
 <jpwhiting> strange
 <jpwhiting> works I guess, though I would think two opposite icons
would be better for accessibility
 <jpwhiting> so if gray is the foreground color as it seems in that bug
