--- Comment #2 from Jean-Baptiste Mardelle <j...@kdenlive.org> ---
I understand and agree that an application is not supposed to override the
desktop settings.
However, this change was made because many users requested it. 
Most of Kdenlive's users like to use it with a dark color theme, and many of
them use Ubuntu.
On Ubuntu, the default theme for KDE apps is GTK+ which does not work with dark
themes. Many widgets keep a light background color, making Kdenlive look really
bad if not completely useless (changing color scheme with GTK+ doesn't update
text color so you end up with white text on light gray background). As a
result, may first time users of Kdenlive on Ubuntu just gave up and declared it
worthless. When running a Gnome session, there is no way to change the default
widget style.

So currently to me it looks like the choice is to either respect the Desktop
style and provide a terrible user experience or override the Desktop style...

Apart from that I agree that the "Default" entry should follow the Desktop
setting.
But currently I would still like to use a "Factory" setting (Breeze) by default
for Ubuntu users... 
any idea or feedback is welcome as I am aware that this is not a good solution,
maybe this should be discussed on a KDE mailing list...
