I know what you mean, but just enabling the colour setting would be one giant step better. They already have it in the command line, but they just have not implemented it in the system. It's been there for a while now, and nothing has been done. It's something that is of low priority in general. However, when you have 15 guests running at a time that you use all at once, needing more colours is essential. I built my Qubes Suite to do many of the tasks that the current qubes manager I find cumbersome to do. Also, to use less RAM than using python all the time in that methodology. So I'm just trying to get to know how it does some things so that I can either fix them, or remedy them, or just make them work.
