Proposal / advice needed: use background color to visualize expression depth instead of delimiters text color #38

Hello and thank you for your work!

I want to experiment implement following feature basing on rainbow-delimiters: use background colour lightness gradation to visualise expression depth instead of delimiters text colour.

I have no elisp experience.

Can you give some advise on this topics: Is is possible? What elisp manual would you recommend? What do I need to understand to make this work?

You can just set the :background property on the respective faces by using set-face-attribute or a custom theme.
