Does this mean you agree with the rest of my mail?
Yes.
I personally would like white - or if that's too bright
something reminiscent of paper - e.g. whitesmoke, cornsilk,
oldlace, wheat.
I don't agree with brightening the background. Here's what I
cooked up

I would favour tinting the default face background rather than
the widgets - but that's another holy war.
I'm not worried about the war, I'm worried about breaking the
code at this late stage. That's why I'd recommend leaving things
as they are. But I have to admit, I don't have much faith in the
stability of this release, so maybe it doesn't matter. Dot-oh
releases usually suck, might as well get it over with.
