That would be great. Maybe we could just have 2 separate theme css
files for light and dark mode, for example 'light.css' and 'dark.css'
in ~/.dillo might be easiest.

How do you envision this will work with the existing 'ui_*_color' prefs
in dillorc? Would we just override those if theming is enabled, or
should we get rid of them entirely and have everything controlled by
the theme?

Thanks, there are some nice looking themes there, and might be a good
source for ideas.

I also found this, which is written in C++, but targets FLTK 1.4:
