    People were concerned because such application specific
    definitions override more general definitions like *Font that a user
    might set up.

We're working on a (simple) solution to this problem.

    In the same vein, I keep on running into application resource files
    which spend a lot of time defining which colors to use in which buttons,
    etc. which almost invariably don't work right on monochrome displays.

We're also working on a (simple) solution to this problem.
