IIRC the plan was to use re-coloring for all themes, but I think Tomaz
(who implemented it) was not happy enough with the results yet - or
something like that, so it's not enabled by default.

The breeze_dark was introduced to have "something" until the
re-colorization approach is finished; but now when we have it anyway, we
could also consider an option to prefer *_dark variant for dark themes
if it exists, otherwise do the re-coloring...

Tomaz - thoughts? :-)

All the best,
Kendy
