What a person cannot do today

Brand the console. The stylesheet is fixed, so a deployment that wants its own colors or logo edits the source and carries the change forward on every update.

What they should be able to do

Set the handful of framework color variables from an operator settings page and see the whole console follow, and, for deployments that need more, supply a stylesheet of their own that loads after the console's.

Why it matters

The console is meant to be deployed by many organizations, and the first thing each one wants is to make it look like theirs.

Where

The shell templates (a style block with the overridden variables), the instance settings, the stylesheet scope contract.

Done when

Colors can be set from the console without a restart, a custom stylesheet can be supplied, and the strict content-security policy still holds.
