Feature request: Easy theming like FocusWriter #47

Hi,

I hope I'm not asking too much here, but it would be great to have the 
possibility to have more 
options to theme TextRoom. It can be difficult to find a background that 
doesn't make some part 
of the text difficult to read. 

I have been trying another program, also Qt4-based, called FocusWriter, which 
provides a very 
easy way of choosing the background image (and whether or not to zoom or scale 
it) and also a configurable colored area (with transparency) behind the text, 
so that the background doesn't 
make it hard to read.

I know, some would say 'why don't you use FocusWriter then?'. Despite the fact 
that FocusWriter 
is awesome, and with respect for the developer that put his free time in it, I 
really like 
TextRoom. It has many more features, like rich text possibilities and the cool 
typing sounds 
and is under heavier development as far as I can see. So I'd love to be able to 
customize the 
appearance and easily switch between themes in TextRoom. 

Here is a link to FocusWriter's website: http://gottcode.org/focuswriter/

Greatings,

Gilles

Maybe an editor transparency feature would solve this problem. Thank you for 
your
feedback.

Sorry, but I guess I'm not gonna do it. I avoid to complicate things. 

Thanks for your feedback.
