And in color-theme.el I have code that does this as well.  I think
inverse-video and foreground/background are orthogonal concepts.  If
the tty has no colors, I want an inverse modeline, if the tty has
colors, I want the colors I custmized.

Maybe we can convince Richard?  Why did he think it's wrong?
