Lois:

Well, you could write your own Look&Feel (assuming that you are using
JFC as your component base) and have the L&F do all the work of setting
everything to the same background color.

Beyond that, I can't think of an "easy" way to do this type of thing at
runtime.  You could write your own containers and enforce the setting of
colors to the container color on the add() call.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.
