Not related to the original question but I added a "Colors" button into the ToDoList Toolbar.
It now opens the whole editor settings tree. A user must himself move to the Colors pane and scroll to the end of the list to find settings for "ToDo comments".
We should implement a system (callback, event) that allows moving focus to the desired GUI element in the Options window automatically.
[Edit] Now focus moves directly to the editor colors pane. A user only must scroll to the end of the color list. Quite good!
I added the button because I didn't myself realize until recently the ToDo colors can be adjusted. I guess many other users don't realize it either. The editor settings are intimidating.
