Also, it's weird that the active/inactive colours are inverted in the
window's border and in the applications panel! The white text is the title
of the active window... but the text of the inactive windows in the panel!
It's confusing...

The colours are nice, it's a good theme, but too specific to be default : it
can be hated as much as it can be loved!
