Sounds good.  There seem to be a couple of drawbacks, though:

 - The via/solder color from the preference menu is not stored in the
   .pcb file and is lost when the program is quit

 - The color setting seems to affect only the GUI.  I would like to
   have the grey style in printouts (eps, included in latex, so it can
   be printed along with the description and the schematics, resulting
   in a small book)

 - The parts of the breadboard traces which are actually used by the
   circuit should be black instead of grey

How would I specify the template when creating the initial .pcb with
gsch2pcb?
