Okay, it's a given that various sites are going to be poorly designed such that if you're using colors other than black text on a white background they are not going to look good. I'm unaware of any fix for this other than shooting all of the web developers who do that (but for better or worse that's not legal....).

The main problem I see is what was reported in bug #76686 (which was unfortunately closed and marked as a duplicate of this bug). Konqueror does not follow the system colors when no colors are specified by the web page. I have a dark blue background with light blue text as my system colors, but I consistently get black text on my dark blue background on web pages where the person who designed the page did not specify the color of either the text or the background.

If Konqueror is going to set the background to match my background when the background color isn't specified by the page, why isn't it also using my text color when the page doesn't define the text color? Either it should ignore the system colors entirely (not desirable) or it should use the system colors when the page doesn't define the colors.
