Thank you. The magnification tool is shaping up very well.

Personally, I benefit from the color filters but do not need magnification,
so I hope this will be possible. The beauty of the color inversion is that
regardless of what theme or content you are using, you are guaranteed the
same legibility that you had without color inversion (because the
relationship between the colors is the same - just inverted), and you are
guaranteed 100% coverage of your display.

A high contrast theme will be limited by certain non-compliant or third
party applications.

Best,
Jarlath
