I thought the idea was to remove as much constants as possible and use a
single base color (or a small set) to compute all the others ?
Do we really want users to be able to do things like

Note that besides the possibility of users picking very ugly colors, there's
also the problem that this makes it harder to properly design and test custom
widgets in an application. You're never sure you used the correct constant if
there are too much of them. You have to test every possible colorscheme to
make sure your widget looks right and is readable in all cases.
