Title:
  [SDK] Small light grey text difficult to read on of white background

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I am using the Meizu MX4 with the latest updates(15.04 r3), I also have the BQ E4.5 that has the same issue. 
  Light grey text is very difficult to read even on a white background. In some apps such as the Dekko for instance you cant read the text in the emails, such as bug reports sent from Ubuntu. In settings > accounts , you cant read the email address below each company such as Ubuntu one or Google. As Ubuntu Touch is content based I would have though text contrast would be high on the list but this is not the case. 

  Please see Dekko example attached (taken from MX4)

  Also, If in the future users wish to change the white background to a
  picture (or another colour) this will be a big problem . I have
  manually changed the scope backgrounds to a light blue, lake /
  mountain picture and the phone looks much more interesting, but text
  is very dim for general reading.

  To be honest I think the end user should have some control over text
  size, colour, contrast, font etc as they do in the Unity desktop
  software.

  Please can you consider my request.

  Thanks
