Description Dejan Glozic CLA 2001-10-10 22:25:45 EDT 
I tested PDE on Linux and noticed that the background of all the editors and views is gray 
(the same as the dialogs). Our artwork look less then optimal this way (including things
like syntax coloring in Java editor). 

Should we somehow control this color in preferences and pick white as a default?
The reason I am asking is in order to coordinate PDE editors to do the same.
