Is it me or does it seem crazy to connect the default colors in LibreOffice (i.e., the colors of documents you will produce that are presumably to be circulated to others and therefore seen on multiple computers) to the gnome theme (i.e., colors that are personal to you and your computer)? When I open my presentations on a different computer, the text comes out in a different color. Not good when you get up to make a presentation in front of an audience...

I have found two rather uncomfortable solutions to this problem:

1) Use styles setting the font color for each one, but this requires setting the font color for all styles as far as I can tell (for example, setting it for just level 1 numbering will not set it for level 2).
2) Change Tools->Options->Appearance->Font Color to a specific color, but this will also change the color of text documents, etc. This will also be specific to the computer at hand and, as I mentioned above, could be different on a different computer.
