Well, parts of it are over my head as well, as Terry surely must have
guessed by now :-)

It's better than that. Stylesheets are about the entire range of look
and feel, not just colors.

We have a dead simple API::
@data qt-gui-plugin-style-sheet
True, in the past I've had reservations about using qt stylesheets
directly, but for *this* discussion that's all we have, and there is
no reason not to use this powerful tool.

An interesting idea. It would be a useful command, and fairly easy to do.

It is always easy to add parameters to commands: the commands simply
call c.config.getX('command-param-x').
Let me emphasize what I said in the other thread. Leo's commands and
settings create an excellent (simple, flexible, general) framework for
thinking about *any* set of capabilities that one might want to have
for Leo.
For example, on a recent walk I made the following notes::
Think commands.
Think tasks.
Think design.
Think tests.
Think refactoring.
Think kaizen.
Think *permanent* views.
It this too general? Not at all! Here are some commands that came to mind::
move-to-bugs (moves node to the projects/bugs node)
move-to-features (moves node to the projects/features node)
clone-to-work (clones node and moves it to @work node)
open-script-node (finds @button/@command node)
open-command-def (finds node that defines x command)
add-to-work (finds a node, adds it to @work node)
refactor-rename-ivar
refactor-rename-class
refactor-rename-method
refactor-convert-to-pep8
etc. You get the idea :-)
