I.e. &quot;Active Titlebar Secondary [Color/Background]&quot; or the like.

I always found this wrong terminology to look unpolished when looking at the Quartz \

Given that there are more colors missing compared to KDE3 (mainly the button colors, \

all window decoration related colors to a separate &quot;section&quot; in the colors \
KCM, or even to the module where KWin decorations are configured.
