Night mode button

I guess that probably most of the users have two big panel with a white background
And I also guess that those who happen to have a big screen, have the same problem as mine: too much bright light in the middle of the night. You are watching one movie and then you want to see another- and so you go the FC to navigate through folders and get a lot of light showed in your face as an unwanted bonus. Or even worse: you cannot fall to sleep, so you get up to turn on the computer to watch something [in hopes that maybe it will put you down to sleep]; and then you enter the OS and then FC and then you end up with an effect like in the beginning of that scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRRNzK58ttw. For me it is simply a pain to my eyes, even with my screen set to ECO [dimmed] settings- I have to quickly manually switch my FC from my default fullscreen mode to a windowed one and make it [the whole FC] real small [so that I would mostly see my black wallpaper. And as I have FC in auto-run mode [opened at every OS startup] that pain is simply inevitable
And I know I have a sleeping disorder but I also had my eyes checked recently- so it not theirs fault
So I would like to request a button for the night mode. It could either simply change automatically all the whites to greys; or it could switch all user defined colors to he other user defined colors [the ones defined for the night mode]. The first way could potentially render some elements invisible / indistinguishable but probably would require little changes to FC. The second would allow for a full control of display settings- but would also require more changes on behalf of both the FC creator and the nightly user of it
And here is an example of the first solution in the most simplistic version: http://www.dreamviews.com/forum.php. This [dreams driven] site has a simple switch at its top than changes the "main" white to grey, very handy for the nightly readers. And yes, I know that webpages run on HTML / PHP / CSS and FC does not, but the basic principal is the same- to start displaying a grey in the main / biggest area of the software; and to be as easily able to go back
