requiring from this new theme?

My  experience historically has been not so great - I think this is the
third time? I've done what I can on my own, but I also  gave up on a lot of
ideas, as just way outside my expertise.

I guess I have two main ideas, both build off of / reflect things that
others have asked for or suggested. I thought that maybe supporting
someone's time money wise might be appreciated. At any rate, here's what
I'm looking for:

1) A new plugin for color tweaking: something where we could pick our
colors in TW, and see changes immediately. Would obviously need to include
some work to make all the uncommon bits visible (alerts, for example).

2) The new Notebook theme is awesome, but.... made me pine for one of my
original thoughts again - the manuscript!
* a two-panel layout (like an open book) that can become "single page" as
needed depending on browser width
* the "book" sits on a table/like background, of course, possibly with some
other items visible for aesthetic purposes (inkwell and quill!)
* "turny corners" to move to next page / prev page of a tiddler "page"
* editing would be a single panel on the page, like normal
* There's a bookmark, and I have two ideas here:
IDEA 1:  the part of the bookmark showing has the main tool buttons
(New/Home/Save, etc.) as well as navigation buttons - previous tiddler aka
chapter, maybe last 5 tiddlers. Idea is basically to allow for tiddlers as
static "pages" but still have fairly easy navigation (an idea would be to
have temporary additional "bookmarks/tags" on the sides of the "book" for
quick navigation to other "open"  tiddlers)
IDEA 2: put new/save/home buttons on the object on the table (click on the
inkwell to create a new page/tiddler, quill to save, etc) and keep the
bookmark super simple, possibly with links to "home" pages or fave tiddlers
* Clicking on bookmark takes you to "front page" - that has the main tool
tabs (Search / Open / Recent / Tools / etc.) and the TOC
* Layout on front page with bookmark would be, from right to left (or left
to right?), <whole "page"> with TOC, <bookmark> on top layer of right page
with buttons as normal at top, and buttons for the various "tabs" in normal
layouts, and then the rest of the right page  <exposed> "behind" the
bookmark, which would show all the other details - the tools list and
buttons, the open tiddlers, and so on.

I know I'm going overboard with the aesthetic functionality here, but... I
do have reasons, it doesn't hurt to list off all the hopes, no matter what,
and I think it would make for an awesome website
