sure, nobody is arguing that.

What is wrong with having _several_ implementations using some blending of 
colors to figure out what the best behavior is?
I'm confused what the big haste is. Why do you guys want to settle this 
_now_?? (which I conclude from  you continuing this thread)

We traditionally have 3 usages of some code before we find something 
eligible to import into KDELibs. For a reason.
I'd really like to know why you guys are resisting the proposed action of 
letting the dust settle for a while now.
