Yes, that's indeed a better ancestor for custom drawn buttons.

They would be put even in the same unit. I'm sure, we can share the code.
What about this:
TSpeedButton is already painted by the LCL. If the Color property is not the
default, it can switch to custom drawing (Lines instead of
Frame3D/DrawFrameControl). Then we can also add properties BorderWidth,
Margin, gradient, or whatever is desired.
And those who want a 'red' button, we can tell to use a TSpeedButton
instead.
Then the widgetsets need less to fiddle overriding theme properties and
programmers get 'special' looking buttons.
A programmer, who wants a 'red' button, does not care about the theme of
the button anyway.
