Hi all, first of all: i'm new to open source and the whole mailing-list thing, plus - as you'll probably recognize - english isn't my native language, so if i do something wrong, please tell me. I'd realy love to see a darker application background in Writer. As you know, the appearance of LibreOffice depends on the used GTK Theme. Because most GTK Themes are light and bright, the contrast between the application background and the document is to low (especially on monitors with low contrast) [1]. When LibreOffice is used over a long period of time, this causes distraction and the loss of focus. I made a mockup [2] and an entry at the wiki [3], so you can see what i'm talking about.
