Please add possibilities to change the style of some explorer elements

There is a great open-source utility Zero Dump but unfortunately it is abandoned. With this utility it is possible to modify contril styles of the running windows. Particularly, it is possible to make the FolderView in Windows Explorer in Vista+ to appear like in Classic Windows, with the 3D border around:



This can be done by setting the property "Client Edge" in the extended style tab in ZeroDump. This sets the control style to the value 56001348.

Unfortunately the utility can do this only with one Explorer window and every time the procedure should be repeated manually. It would be great if 7+TT could do the same every time it loads.

Another issue is that when disabling the themes under Windows 8+ with w8classic utility (http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=113024) the taskbar becomes of incorrect color and the top edge invisible.  This also can be fixed with Zero Dump, but again, only manually. It would be great if 7_TT would incorporate this feature, and also (optionally) the feature of w8classic theme disabler (the source code is available in the same archive).
w8classic works by by closing the handle to a shared memory section named "\Sessions\<Session ID>\Windows\ThemeSection" in the WinLogon process.
