Enable icons to use colors relative to the colors from the current ambience.

Yes, I very much support this request. Ambience is one of the key Sailfish OS features and it should be easier create an application that adapts it graphics -- not just "icons" -- according to the current ambience.

A good solution would e.g. be to allow the use of the QtGraphicalEffects module with ColorOverlay component, but unfortunately that is currently not accepted by Jolla harbour/store.

I also needed this in my own application: I wanted icon (buttons) that use the current highlight color, so I worked around one solution: RGBIcon.qml component which is available in here:
