Could colors be moved up together with the other 'theme-ish' items in preparation for T11052 (there is already a kcm module that is rough around the edges but works)?

Almost done, just the Desktop Effects -> Graphical Effects change left. That's turned out to be a bit controversial. I'm calling this done for now, and if we end up getting D22894, that can be considered a bonus. :)
