Hi Jon. I'm using the "@solarized-" names, and they're working ok, I don't think that part of the theme machinery is damaged. But note that those names aren't built into Leo, they have to be defined in @settings, so if you copied the @data qt-gui-plugin-style-sheet node without copying the section of settings that defines them, they won't work. In my old personal settings I have them defined in their own nodes in @settings, e.g. a node with headline @color solarized-yellow = #b58900 and and empty (and irrelevant) body. According to leoSettings.leo it's also possible to define them in a comment in the stylesheet definition, but that's only done in dark 1 and dark 2, not dark 0.
