   The default white background colour is currently hard-coded although
there is a good argument for it to work as you say. However, if the user
chooses a much different background colour, such as black, then all the
foreground colours should change to still be visible - particularly black!

   The styles are defined in the PYTHON_STYLES variable in formatter.py with
the third element in each item being the background colour but this setting
is only applied to a new installation and is then stored in the registry to
remember user changes.
