For that purpose we already have clScrollBar etc., see Graphics.pp 270 ff.

At least on Windows the user can specify freely the colors for the most 
common window elements. See: Control Panel - Display Properties - 
Appearance - Advanced Appearance. AFAIK all platforms have something 
like Themes for similar purpose.

A GUI designer should not try to assume or supply specific colors for 
all these elements.
