I'm just going to say the same. But other answers in the thread are also true. Also, I can easily imagine som kind of scenario in which people could find useful to have more than one color scheme, for example, for different file types: It is not my case, at leas with vim, but for shell sometimes I change the color scheme of a given console (konsole in my case) to easily distinguish from (to many) others spread on my virtual desktops. For example to avoid closing some important process which must not be interrupted. In the case of vim, for example, you could want to emphatize some file which is periodically accessed by running process which is doing something and want to avoid writting broken/uncomplete version by mistake.
