At (3), when clicking on an element of the list, the color chooser 
should open and then you can select a new color.
You will need to save the theme (then Thematic creates a backup theme) 
and then relaunch GWorkspace (or reload the theme in the "About..." 
panel) so that it uses the updated theme.


You can test on "alternateSelectedControlColor"  and 
"highlightedTableRowBackgroundColor". Search trough the list for all the 
items that have this colour.

I modified the latter in Rik.theme because the highlight color of rows 
in list views wasn't the same as in browserviews.
