Actually... that's a problem with the KCM. Eventually (read: post-4.0) I 
want to try to make it "smart" about auto-picking colors for all sets. 
Right now, I'm being lazy and trying to pick colors that work well with 
all sets. But each role is actually defined independently for each set, 
so if we need to, it is possible to assign totally different foreground 
colors for each set. (And, it may be a good idea to consider doing this 
for shipped schemes, especially the default scheme.)
