#' Plot auto-color module
#'
#' This piece of code is necessary so that plots get the
#' good background color, automatically. It requires the use
#' of the thematic package and shiny dev.
#'
#' @param input Shiny input object.
#' @param output Shiny output object.
#' @param session Shiny session object.
#'
#' @return An observer telling Shiny to update the current theme. It has to be inserted
#' at the top of the main server function.
#' @export
