 * I’m working on a theme but something I’ve never done before is causing some head-
   scratching…
 * I have an active_callback set for a few custom colour settings. Checking the 
   checkbox will enable the custom settings (will then show the colour selectors).
 * I moved the core background colour setting like this:
 *     ```
       $wp_customize->get_control( 'background_color' )->section   = 'my_preset_colours';
       $wp_customize->get_control( 'background_color' )->priority = 40;
       ```
   
 * However, how can I get the core background_colour to have my active_callback:
 * `'active_callback' => 'my_custom_accent_colours_show',`
 * Hopefully the above makes sense 🙂
