Movie showing hover problem

The default themes (e4_default_gtk.css, e4_default_mac.css, e4_default_win.css, and possible others) contain a Form styling rule that seems to be intended for dark themes

Form {
	/* Bug 465148: Additional styling for the Form */
	text-background-color: #ffffff;

	tb-toggle-hover-color: #505050;
	tb-toggle-color: #505050;
	h-hover-full-color: #505050;
	h-hover-light-color: #505050;
	h-bottom-keyline-2-color: #eaeaea;
	h-bottom-keyline-1-color: #eaeaea;
}

This #505050 hover color makes form hovers unreadable in the default theme.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
