At present, all of these plug-ins allow the user to manually select the colours of these various visual elements. It would be preferable, however, for these plug-ins to draw this information (automatically) from the systems colour scheme/theme (varying alpha transparency, hue, saturation, etc. from a base colour defined in the system colour scheme/theme as necessary). I user override would still be desirable, but the user should not need to manually reconfigure each and every such plug-in whenever they change colour scheme/theme. An cogent example; A default installation of Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) comes preconfigured with (broadly) orange coloured visual elements. This suits the default Ubuntu 11.10 colour scheme/theme very well. However, where a user to switch to a custom colour scheme/theme, such orange visual elements might look out of place. They certainly do with my currently preferred colour scheme/theme, eGTK (from elementaryOS). To surmise, a more consistent and possibly centralised approach (with the option of per plug-in user overrides) to colour scheme management and its application to compiz plug-ins would be desirable.
