Could you please elaborate on this (or better yet, suggest where the doc 
could be improved)?

List = View... but for this you can use Base from the QPalette also.
KCS(state, KCS::View).background() // KCS::NormalBackground is default

...normaly you would want to use KStatefulBrush where appropriate, but 
if you're generating html you don't have state; just use Active.

Hover color is KCS(state, set).decoration(KCS::HoverColor), for hover 
effect see how it's done in konq/dolphin. Basically, you want to look at 
KColorUtils::mix or KCU::tint. Note that KCS currently generates 
backgrounds by the formula special=KCU::tint(bgNormal, fgSpecial, 0.4); 
that might work for you.
