I've found it !

Basically, you have to get the rc_style property from any widget (I used
self.win) and get the colors from the style. The color #4 is the
insensitive one. Then you have to get the red, green and blue values of
the color, transform them in hexa, remove the "0x" part of the hexa,
concatenate each value and prepend "#" :)

I attached the implementation.

The problem now is that, when an inactive task is selected, it uses the
inactive color. We should find a way to tell it not to set the
foreground when the row is selected. I'll look at it tomorrow.
