[Github-comments] [geany] Alerts in status bar: insufficient visibility (#781)

[Matthew Brush]

> A colour change with a timer should be pretty trivial to code.

Would probably have to add a special style in the `geany.gtkrc` (for gtk2) and `geany.css` (for gtk3) files containing the alternate styles, and then change which style applies to the label widget inside the statusbar from said timer handler. Probably have to put label widget inside an eventbox widget since labels don't have windows to change bg colour of (unless only text color changed). Also have to ensure default colours work with all possible GTK+ theme that users could use. And also to account for people with colour blindness.
