Style: Color Schemes

[dtdesign]

The style system already supports a huge customizable color palette, but each color variable can be assigned a single value only. This creates a situation where styles are sometimes offered in dozens of different variants that only differ by the color palette, but use the same overall CSS. "Color schemes" solve this by offering a switch between color variants that all belong to the same "physical" style.

• [ ] A toggle allows the color palette to switch between color schemes.
• [ ] Color schemes are read-only for protected styles.
  • [ ] The administrator may copy an existing scheme to customize it, thus preserving full update support.
  • [ ] Color schemes must be sortable and it should be possible to disable variants.
  • [ ] Pre-defined color schemes cannot be deleted, unless the style protection is removed.
  • [ ] One color scheme should be defined as the default variant.

It would be nice to make color schemes only available to certain groups

This issue would greatly benefit from CSS variables, especially since something like a "Dark Mode" is pretty much just a different set of colors for the same thing.

However, this can have a significant impact on static images, including but not limited to logos, so things may be much more complicated than they appear on the surface.
