This idea has already been presented some time ago in the OOo UX 
project, but has not been implemented by now (AFAIK).

I can't find the proposal right now, but I'm quite sure, Christoph knows 
where to find it.

As our structure is different from the OOo project, it is much more 
likely that your ideas might become implemented. What you need is a 
developer interested in adding a "choose background color/image"-feature 
to the product.

I'm forwarding this mail to the developer list, CC'ing you, so you 
should get their replies even if you didn't subscribe to this list via
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

I don't know if this feature is easy or hard to implement, but perhaps 
it can be added to the list of "easy hacks":

... where developer can pick it.

Best regards

Bernhard
