SUMMARY
***
Feature request for being able to change the background + icon colors of the Places section. See attached screenshot: on the left is Dolphin with standards Breeze icons, on the right is Thunar, an alternative file manager. At the icon size in the screenshot, the icons are black against a grey background, which is terrible for contrast. I would like to be able to change:
A) The color of the icons. For some reason these are changed to monochrome at this size. Only by making the icons bigger can I get the icons to become blue again, but that has its own disadvantages: they become too big and difficult to fit and get an overview. Why not give everyone the option whether they want the icons to be monochrome or not, regardless of the size? 
B) The background of the Places section. I'd like to be able to make this white, which will result in better contrast both for the icons and the black text. 
For both, an option in the Settings to customise this would be great.
Please note this is partly a matter of taste and customisability, but will also really help visually challenged users see things better in this section.
