It may already be possible, it's fairly deep in the menu trees for someone trying to do something 
simple. It's also not equipped with a live preview or any semblance of an attempt at matching color 
schemes, and the color picker is kind of dated/ugly (choose from a dropdown list? A color? Out of 
some forty or fifty sets? Not a good idea!). I think Alex is just suggesting that 1) We could 
change the default, which is sensible, and 2) At least make it more apparent.
