Harven,
One of Org-mode's fundamental goals is to help people make more
*efficient* (sorry, •efficient•) use of their time. Screwing around
with utterly useless vanity config ("I wanna make it look COOL")
is the exact opposite.
Please don't *insult* our devs by calling this useless BS a "BUG",
let alone ask them to *waste* their precious time and skills on it.
If you manage to implement it yourself, you're welcome to send your
patch to the list. We might need it someday, when we -in a bout of
insanity- decide our target audience somehow includes twelve-year-olds.
If you find that rude, don't worry:
If our product or the technical support pertaining to it proves
unsatisfactory in any way, you're entitled to a full refund.
Just send your proof of purchase to one of our sales reps near you.
You still have the receipt don't you?
Peace

Pieter
