Typically, if you get no answer here, nobody disagrees, and nobody wants
to care about it at the moment. Please make a bug report. Please give
some details what exactly should be changed, e.g. which faces should be
used instead of the ones you don't want to use. Then, I hope someone
will have a look sooner or later.
Regards,
Michael.
