Have you looked at KColorScheme? The only things non-brushes there come 
from ::shade (which is really an offshoot of KColorUtils with palette 
smarts); all other palette colors are already QBrush's :-).

Of course, they don't work well yet (most back-end code just assumes 
that really they are just colors) and the kcm is nowhere near being able 
to configure /brushes/ in the palette (and I don't even want to think 
how many apps would be confused by a real brush). But the API is already 
anticipating this eventuality :-).

(How do you write a QBrush to a KConfig? :-) Is that already supported?)
