Tried to get the white background on these rows by changing the code
myself.  Managed to get the white background, BUT the effort total
has vanished from the row, and so I could use some advice.

Here's what I did:  in the function org-agenda-colview-summarize,
found in org-colview.el, I replaced these two lines:

			 (put-text-property
			 0 (length lsum) 'face 'bold lsum)

with these two:

			 (add-text-properties
			  0 (length lsum) 'face '(:background white) lsum)

Where did I go wrong?
