You can kill the patch and someone at some point maybe will actually fix
it the way you're looking for. No need to drag on the convo, I get the
point and no one (other than me) is arguing against you. It seems like
we're in an age where one person's opinion can block commits/ideas - so
go ahead and kill it. I don't have the time or know how to do it the way
you want so I'll just keep the patch local so I can actually use my
ruler on a dark theme.
