Ok, I did just that and it looks ab-so-lute-ly lovely !
(I'm using the misterioso-theme on emacs 24)

One thing kind of bugs me, but I'm pretty sure it is unavoidable, the
rest of the (unpopulated) buffer window still shows the themed
background color. I'm pretty sure it is a result of the face-paradigm,
but I would love to be corrected on this !
