aah excellent, thank you Benoit, looking much nicer now :)

A bit more color choice would be good.
a Style.Background as well would be good because from what i can tell the
Style.Color affects selected tab color but also the whole background too.
I'd like to set the "styled things" color and not affect the general
background.
But there seems to be only one color setting available.

Respects  (and thanks all the same, it's nice work anyway :) )
