Unfortunately, it appears to be one more step down the Ubuntu road of
taking away customization. So I'm doubtful anything will come of
it. But it means a lot to me, so I will report it, nevertheless.
It may well be the end of color customization.

More clues. I've tested on a few environments.
1. Lubuntu does no colorize at all. Nor fgtk2 nor gtk3.
2. XFCE (using Shimmer's gtk-theme-config) DOES colorize only gtk2
(pretty normal, as usually gtk3 is not able to do this)
3. Mate. The same as XFCE, only colorizes gtk2 apps (I insist, gtk3
apps cannot be colorized as is, they need to be tweaked via .gtk-3.0
RC).
4. Ubuntu hasn't this feature anymore.
So, as colorization works in every environment as eexpected, the
problem is ours. But themes react fine in other desktops, so there's
no problem at all on engines or themes RC files.
So, once tested all steps, there's only one left: the LXDE session
settings daemon. Shall we declare it as a bug?

Yes, I can't customize Lubuntu-default, experimental Box, or
even Adwaita. Now I'm testing Xubuntu themes and they seem to be
un-colorizable too. Something's happening to the Desktop
Settings daemon. It's not theme or engine related. It also
affects GTK3.
Let me try more tests on other environments and I hope to have
an answer or, at least, a clue.

All:
I encountered a problem with Lubuntu 14.04 which (to me) is
a show-stopper. I'm sure it isn't as important to others.
I have my own peculiar style of customized colors. One of
the main reasons my primary system uses Lubuntu is because
of the color-customization, which retains the ease-of-use
that was present in Ubuntu 11.04.
I upgraded a Lubuntu 13.10 system for which the colors
worked fine. After the upgrade to 14.04, the color
customization does not appear in any windows I have tried
(and I have tried a lot of them).
Even in the window where you change the appearance with
custom colors, it shows that it remembers the colors I
specified, but the specified colors are not used in the
window in which I specify them.
It appears that color-customization can be done in the
preferences settings, but the color customization you
specify is universally ignored.
Does anyone have any idea of how to make color-customization
work in Lubuntu 14.04?

Of course you can always make your own theme, so it will never be
dead. I have made a few themes for the WM, and the panel is still
customizable fortunately.
@Aere, Rafael did say the bug was in lubuntu session settings daemon.

Israel:
Is there something in the repository you install to build your own
theme? If so, what is the package name I should use (or search-for)?
Using Synaptic Package Manager, searching for 'lubuntu', I do not see
anything that resembles "lubuntu session settings daemon". Do you know
what the package name is for it?
