Review request for usability and David Jarvie.


Changes
-------

Add David's screen shot.


Summary
-------

Hard-coded colors are Evil (bad Usability, bad Accessibility, and just plain bad... \
not to mention not very aesthetic in this case IMO). This removes the major \
hard-coded colors in KAlarm (default alarm colors, colors in the alarm list), the \
latter of which are especially bad as they can be illegible in some color schemes.

...but there are others in at least eventlistmodel.cpp, messagewin.cpp, \
dbushandler.cpp and resourcemodelview.cpp. Depending on how motivated I feel, more \
patches might follow in the future.


Diffs

Testing
-------

built and ran, colors were okay as checked by viewing in Settings, New Alarm, and a \
disabled alarm.
