REd areas show scrollbars

SUMMARY

While I generally agree with a toned-down choice of application colours, Kompare's scrollbars are actually quite difficult to see/use on a vanilla Kubuntu install.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start kompare with a couple of files.
2. Look at the scrollbars.

OBSERVED RESULT

Note how the scrollbar's buttons are not very visually distinct. See the attached image for an example of all 3 scrollbars.

EXPECTED RESULT

The button colour should be more distinct from the scroll region colour.

The issue is made worse when the background happens to be a light colour (I forgot to make this point in the screenshot, sorry).
