[Interest] Changing QSpinEdit color

[A.Dmitrovsky]

here i found where is behaviour André is talking about documented:

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/stylesheet.html: 
When a style sheet is active, the QStyle returned by QWidget::style() is a wrapper "style sheet" style, not the platform-specific style. The wrapper style ensures that any active style sheet is respected and otherwise forwards the drawing operations to the underlying, platform-specific style (e.g., QWindowsXPStyle on Windows XP).
