Actually, I'd probably disagree with that, because as a reasonable UX
customization that has gained Design team approval, setting a custom color from
the Appearance panel is a very logical implementation.  Additionally as Expert
Config remains a horrible hack at this point--it is really not functional at
all for efficiency of UI configuration. Especially a joy if you happen to be
using AT.

IMHO the Tools -> Options -> Appearance -> Custom Colors remains the most
direct and efficient way to implement assignment of alternate color to the
NON_PRINTING_CHARACTER_COLOR RGB_COLORDATA as manipulating RGB color assignment
to variables either directly or more often via enum lists is how this aspect of
the UI is customized, see svtools/colorcfg.

Implementing remaining facet of this issue probably rates an easy-hack
designation. But if combined with the automated adjustment of bug 78381, and a
need to handle display of NPC in modules other than writer it becomes a more
substantial development effort.
