Could you provide better color tones for the lighter greens (and 
others?). Even if it would be possible to change them later too, the 
sooner the better for everybody using these colors for her/his artwork 
and design.

That has been the main reason to propose to add the Yellow (now included 
in the color table). I think LibreYellow1 is too brownish and therefore 
too near to LibreMarron1, that's why I used LibreYellow2 as Draw color.

BTW: I don't think that having one sub-application in the main color is 
a real problem - having three different blue tones in OOo (logo color, 
main icon and writer) caused some problems there...

Does anybody know who is Clio, its designer ?
