IMHO, this is not the time to make such changes.  As Miles pointed
out, these issues tend to generate prolonged disputes with
characteristic difficulties to reach a consensus.  Also, changing a
bunch of face colors tends to prompt many other color-related changes,
which spread like a cancer.  Why start that now?  Especially since, as
your other message shows, it might be tricky to even agree on what is
``light'' and what is ``dark''.
