So what color do you expect your toolbar buttons to be - I suspect gray80
which is hardcoded into xpm-color-symbols. This has to change because the
color is (a) hardcoded (b) not the right color under mswindows.
I expect them to be the same color as the toolbar, which by default is
#ce72ce72ce72 on my box. Changing my default face or the face of the
modeline should have no effect on them.
i) I am happy to set the toolbar face background to gray80 in the X
domain,
but this is precisely the change that everyone has got so heated about over
the modeline.
Why can't it just pick it up from the app defaults database like
everything else, and the appropriate thing under windows? We should be
able to fallback to whatever the 'color theme' for toolbars is under
windows.

Because there are no X resources and setting xpm-color-symbols directly
is wrong.
I think we should find another way. Face settings come too late to
affect the toolbar very well.
