@Michael made a vaild point.

Haven't played around with the ColorConfig
much, (slow PC reasons), but this week I will go  through that.
Things will be more clear then.

This is my take on it now.
- Read the colors from the widget toolkits and store it somewhere.
  The entries in the `Color ColorConfig::GetDefaultColor(ColorConfigEntry eEntry)`   are hard-coded, can be created on startup instead. Something like having a vector   of structs with the default color values for different ENUMs associated to
  UI elements.

- Then the colors in the StyleSettings can be initialized based on theme selection.   If it's "System Theme", then the colors saved in the point above can be used to   initialize the StyleSettings. If it's some custom theme (extension), then the
  colors should be read from the expert configuration instead.

The project is about not depending on the OS for colors and implement "Themes" in Libreoffice. So as per my understanding (opinions invited), all the `Set...Color()` calls in the `bool UpdateSettings(AllSettings& rSettings)` functions, which take colors from the OS and put them into the `StyleSettings` are to be removed, and colors should be passed to the widget toolkits, which were read from the expert configuration.

My take would be that colors should still be taken from the OS's/toolkit's current system theme/style by default, and only be overriden if explicitly configured so.
