Agreed - this is a work-around for the black-on-black but considering I wanted 
to turn them off anyway (see the OP) it is a fix in my case.

As for fixing the Bahira theme, I'll grab the source and have a look into that 
but for now I'm happy.  I don't think this warrants a bug report just yet as 
I'm not convinced it's Bahira's fault - my Hoary system still has some 
outstanding kde updates ;)

Cheers,

James
