Accent colors provide a way for users to personalize their desktop in a simple, developer-friendly, and effective way. Throughout the community there has been a general interest in the inclusion of accent colors within apps and desktop environments. This proposal aims to standardize an accent color key on the Settings portal.
A new key on the Settings portal,
accent-color, would be defined under theorg.freedesktop.appearancenamespace.
And endorsed by #GNOME, #KDE, #CosmicDE, #ElementaryOS, and #Budgie, at that!
Isn’t this a separate package not part of the Linux kernel? I don’t see why Linus would have to get involved.
