I don't know BControlLook very well (actually not at all), but AFAIK it is
still rather experimental. From what I gathered from the recent color
(contants) discussion, larger changes are being considered. As long as the API
isn't final there isn't any point in adding virtual slots.
Anyway, before the API is declared final I'd like to have a bit of a discussion
about it, also more generally about where we want to go with respect to theming
and modular look and feel support.
CU, Ingo
