Distribution/Version: Gentoo 2005.1

When using for example, a transparent panel with pictures behind it, the panel
text is always black, even over dark backgrounds. This makes the text hard to
read. It would be nice to be able to change the color of the panel text, or for
it to automatically change (maybe something like reverse of what's behind it),
so that it's easier to read.
