gtk-color-scheme customization

Created attachment 192211 [details] color switcher Is this something that is potentially includable in gnome-tweak-tool or a won't fix because of some design decisions? If yes I'd be willing to work on it, I already have made a little external program which does the job, see attachment.
Is this relevant for gtk3?
Yes, both gtk2 and gtk3 themes adapt to honour the new colors - only metacity does not for some odd reason I could not figure out up to now, though i.e. mutter does.
Created attachment 194924 [details] Patch Find attached patch which implements color scheme customization. I've also attached a screenshot. I'm not really happy about the "Defaults" button, but I can't think of a way to integrate it better. Comments appreciated.

Does it look better with "Color Scheme" at the top and not the middle? I'm also considering supporting a hierarchy of tweaks, such that the list on the left becomes a tree, and we can stick this as a child of "Theme" Regarding defaults - I am working on a g-t-t wide system for resetting defaults, so please remove that button.
Created attachment 194956 [details] Patch v2 - Removed Defaults button - Added yalign kwarg support to build_label_beside_widget() - Renamed "Color Scheme" to "GTK+ color scheme" - Fixed a tab which should have been spaces

Created attachment 199724 [details] [review] Patch v3 - Use Box instead of VBox - Use widget.override_background_color and widget.override_color instead of deprecated widget.modify_base and widget.modify_fg - Use Gdk.RGBA instead of Gdk.Color, since widget.override_[background_]color need a Gdk.RGBA - Patch created against current master
Will this be implemented? It seems like an old bug.
According to [1], support for color schemes has been removed in Gtk 3.7.4, so I fear that this bug is a dead end. I'll close it accordingly. [1] http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtk+/3.7/gtk+-3.7.4.news
