So I take it you have followed the blog's method by passing in your
own FormColors instance to your toolkit during construction? It seems
that this approach allows a developer to easily customize how their
Forms controls looks like but does not however address the potential
need of completely styling an entire application with unified colours
(as different plug-ins may style their Forms controls differently).

I look forward to hearing more from you and others. I hacked up the
Forms support purely for experimentation purposes but probably won't
work on it again anytime soon since CSS SWT support takes precedence.
