Is it possible to set an arbitrary color as a windows phone 8 background?

I would like to be able to select any color (in RGB) for the background of Windows Phone 8. However, I have only several colors in themes. Why did Microsoft not allow this level of customization (i.e. an option to select color of background, text and all related UI elements separately by the user)?

Yeah man. Only light and dark backgrounds with a few tile color choices. That, and no custom SMS and Email alerts irks me.
