I was reacting to *re*moving a setting completely, not to moving it to a more appropriate context. Ok, after another rethink... It starts to make sence if karbon is used not as an odg editor but as an svg editor. Let's say you create an icon that should be shown on certain background color(s), it would be a help if you could check your design aginst those colors. In his case you are not concerned with wysiwyg or printing as you would be with an odg document.
