This is one of those really odd things where something that seems off and goofy 
actually helped understand much better how to set up the colors and how to get 
even the first one right. I will have to move this into some form of settings page 
eventually, but it's definitely something I'll keep around.

Hmm - again, I'm just using a default feature here (look at how trivial the change
is. So the question is "are we finding a bug in Qt" or "is there some other setting
that we need". I tested it a few times and while I can't get it to work at all on the
desktop, on the device it seemed to work rather reliably for me.

Can you look at the Developer->AppLog and tell us what you see there? It 
should report that it detected the refresh and when it is done... and I wonder
if it tells us anything differently the second time... or if maybe it never gets
done?
