Why not just expect that users will use a custom style sheet for Konqueror if they wish to change colors and only change SYSTEM colors, not Konqueror colors.

Personally, I'd rather have a page be legible and in the wrong color scheme. This seems like such a thorny issue to have (especially with so many badly written sites that specify a text or background color but not both) that it's not really solvable.

One more tip. If you DO run into a site where you just can't read it, hit control-A to select all. This will force the colors into the highlight scheme, which should be legible unless you screwed those up.

Also, (and this is what I did with the Dusky color scheme: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=7832 ) make the default text color a medium color -- not light or dark. That way you'll be able to read it on either background. Of course, this is easier said than done, since you'll probably want to go closer to either light or dark. (reading text that has lower contrast than it should is somewhat challenging.)
