A couple changes to Lumina:

1) Add 3 different "view modes" for applications in the start menu: Alphabetical (no categories), Partial Categories (same as before - still on list though), or Categories (need to click the category to go into it and see the applications).2) Fix the theming of partially checked checkboxes and groupboxes.
3) Force the desktop icons to have black text in the theme (no matter which color scheme is in use).
4) Adjust the outlining effects of the desktop icons to use a radial gradient now, so you get a smoother effect which does not steal eye focus as much on contrasting backgrounds.
