Do you happen to know if there's something like those "Quake shells"
for Gnome as well? It really sounds interesting!

You're wrong. I was writing that when I was at home, where I've
got a notebook and a LCD. I've got no CRT at home anymore.

But actually, I don't use bright white (eg. rgb(255,255,255)),
but something that's a bit less bright.

At work, at a CRT, I use bright white though.

bad, but a "best for all" - hm, you're right, such a setting might
not exist, even for "normal" non-handicapped people.
